Lymphogranuloma is a type of sexually transmitted infection caused by the Chlamydia trachomatis bacteria. It tends to affect the lymph nodes and genitals, leading to symptoms like swollen nodes, sores, fever, and pain. Often referred to as lymphogranuloma venereum, it is more common in tropical and subtropical areas. If left untreated, it can lead to long-term complications, including genital swelling and rectal inflammation.
