  • "When a group of enlarged cervical or axillary lymph nodes is palpated, it may be of value to palpate very carefully between the nodes and about them for strands (involved lymphatic channels). If such strands show fine beading it is very suspicious that the lymphatic disease is of tuberculous origin." [101]
