You have the highest concentration of lymph nodes in your neck, collarbone, armpits, and groin. Once you know where they are, you will be able to check them for pain or swelling. There are other groups of lymph nodes throughout the body, including the inside of your elbows and knees, but these are not commonly checked for swelling. Press your first 3 fingers against your forearm. Feel around under the skin, paying attention to the feeling of the tissue underneath. This will give you a sense of what a normal, unswollen area of your body feels like. Lymph nodes that are not swollen have only a slightly firmer density to their surrounding tissue. It is only when they get irritated and swollen that you can feel them easily. Use the first 3 fingers of both hands simultaneously to circle behind the ears, down both sides of your neck, and under your jaw line. If you feel lumps accompanied by tenderness, you may have swollen lymph nodes.  If you can't feel your neck lymph nodes, don't worry. This is completely normal. Press gently and move your fingers slowly to feel for firm groups of tissue under the skin. Lymph nodes are typically present in groups, and are about the size of a pea or bean. Healthy lymph nodes should feel more rubbery and pliable than the surrounding tissue but not hard as a rock. If you can't feel the lymph nodes in your neck, lean your head towards the side you are having trouble checking. This will relax the muscles and allow you to feel the lymph nodes more easily. in your armpits. Place your first 3 fingers in the center of your armpit. Then slide them slowly down your torso a few inches until they are just above the side of your breast. The lymph nodes in this area are located toward the bottom of your armpit, near the rib cage. Run your fingers all around this area with gentle pressure. Move them towards the front of the body, the back of the body, and up and down a few inches. Move your first 3 fingers to the crease where your thigh meets your pelvis.  Press your fingers into the crease with moderate pressure and you should feel the muscle, bone, and fat beneath. If you feel a distinct lump in this area, it may be a swollen lymph node.  The nodes in this area are typically right below a large ligament, so they can be hard to feel unless they are swollen. Be sure to feel both sides of the groin. This will allow you to compare how they feel and to identify if one side of lymph nodes is swollen. Do you feel a difference from how it felt when you pressed your forearm? You should feel the bones and muscles underneath the skin, but a swollen lymph node will feel different and almost out of place. If you feel a lump accompanied by tenderness, you may have a swollen lymph node.

summary: Locate your lymph nodes. Test an area with no lymph nodes for comparison. Check the lymph nodes on your neck and collarbone. Feel the lymph nodes Feel for the inguinal lymph nodes in your groin. Determine if your lymph nodes are swollen.

Make sure the device, equipment, or vehicle is turned off before the fuse is removed. To remove the fuse, simply pull it straight out of the slot. Turn the dial on the multimeter so it points to the continuity setting, which looks like 5 curved vertical lines. Before you test the fuse, put the positive and negative leads together and listen for the meter to beep to ensure it’s working properly. If you want to measure the ohms, use the multimeter setting that has the omega symbol (Ω). Because the fuse is little more than a single wire—and no complex parts to worry about—it does not matter which side receives the positive or negative lead. Listen for the multimeter to beep continuously as you hold the probes against the fuse. If you don’t hear any noise coming from the meter, then the fuse is blown and should be replaced. If you’re using a digital multimeter set to measure resistance, touch the probes together to get an initial reading. Then put the probes on either side of the fuse and check if the reading is similar. If it is, then the fuse works properly. If you get no reading or “OL”, then the fuse has blown.

summary: Turn the equipment off and remove the fuse. Turn the meter on and set it to measure continuity. Put one lead on each end of the fuse and look at the display. Test the fuse.

This is a fun alternative way to cut tomatoes, and is particularly helpful if you're squeamish with blades and don't feel comfortable with your knife skills, or if you're just looking for another way to repurpose that egg or apple slicer taking up space in your drawer. Egg slicers can work great for smaller tomatoes, while an apple slicer will work better on beefsteak tomatoes. Simply place your tomato into the slicer's center cradle, as you would a hardboiled egg or an apple. Gently yet quickly press down on the cutting lever to slice through your tomato. Enjoy!
summary: Pull out your egg or apple slicer. Load your washed tomato. Cut your tomato. Finished.
