Who to know when it is cancer ?

I have a little,hard lump in the groin area.
My PD said it was normal, but he only touched it.
And now there is a second one. How am i supposed to
know when it is serious ?
What are the symptoms of hodgkinson or non-hodgkinson ?

The symptoms of hodgkins are enlarged lymph node in neck, arm or groin, fever, night sweats and weight loss. If you now have two enlarged nodes, go to a different doc. Hodgkins is 95% curable if caught early. Also, it could be something altogether different, but better to find out as soon as you can. Good luck to you.
