Hello.I hope you are in good health. The possibilities for this node could be either
1 Normal finding ....nodes are present in abdomen
2infection in abdomen......check if you are having any fever episode
3 Disease of nodes also called lymphoma
You need to check.Usually size > 1.5 _2 can be considered for this.
Biopsy
