What Is The Cause Of Inflammation In Pelvis And Weakness In Lower Body?
i have been noticing for a while now that I have a weakness in my lower body. Sometime in my pelvis and in my legs. I have been very lethargic lately & I have noticed that I have a couple of swollen lymph nodes in my pelvis as well. What could cause inflammation in the pelvis and could this inflammation be causing me to be weak?

Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Enlarged groin lymph nodes can indicate an infection in the neighborhood tissues or some more serious disease like lymphoma or leukemia. Symptoms like weakness, night sweating, mild fever, weight loss are also characteristic for lymphoma/leukemia.
That is why I suggest you to visit your doctor and have it checked. Groin ultrasound and blood work should be done.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
