I had a severe cut to my finger which required removal of glass and stitches. Several days later I noticed the lymph nodes around my groin area became swollen. I have had fever and some night sweats. Other than being sore I go about my daily life. About 5pm. I will feel feverish. I take some Tylenol and then I seem to be ok. I was diagnosed with CLL a few months go, but white blood count has gone down. I went to my hematologist and he was puzzled. No sore throat or sign of lymph node activity anywhere else. He wants to wait another week of so and just see if the inflammation will go way. Published: July 06 ::

Hello I have had swollen lymph nodes (in my neck) since I had a really bad sore throat and cold in April. It is mid June, and my lymph nodes are still swollen, they constantly ache and cause pain in my teeth. Sometimes they hurt more if I am tired, and less after sleep. It would be a great help if you could give me any ideas of what the problem is, and what I need to do to take care of it. Thank you so much for your help! Published: June 24 ::

Personally, my lymph node under my right arm pit was related to the fact that I had a breast lump the size of a walnut under the same side of my right breast as the lymph node was discovered. However, the lymph node was puss and blood filled and I had put hot compresses on it which helped until I would be able to get to my oncologists office. My doctor luckily sent me for a breast MRI due to the fact that my mammogram didn't come back with the best results either! I treated it like acne and it actually worked to help relieve the pain and swelling and actually opened it up, let everything inside of it, out! It actually undid itself while was sitting at church and had raised my hand and put it back down, actually had to change my blouse when I got home its the hugest lymph node I ever had in whole life, it was really frightening to have too and painful, it had steadily become more and more painful and itchy as the days progressed!

For the past 8 months, I've had swollen glands on the right side of my neck and on the sides by my throat. The throat is usually in the evenings, I wake up every night roasting and sweating, a pretty constant headache starting in mid-day and worse by night. When I pointed this out to two different physicians, they just blew it off. Now I am very tired, sleeping whenever I can and it feels like my temperature is up but unable to take it. The swelling on the right side of my neck is always there but actually gets bigger at times and then returns to the smaller size. Published: July 06 ::

My son has a history of cancer. He has been cancer free for over 20 years. His lymph nodes in his neck are swelled and hard and have been this way for 2 to 3 weeks. He went to the doctor today and blood work was done and an appointment was set up with a surgeon for a biopsy. How concerned should I be? I will tell you now, that I am very concerned.

I have 3 swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my hair line on my neck and one on the right side. I saw my doctor he did a chest x-ray and blood-work. Everything came back normal. He gave me Keflex 500mg 4caps for 10 days. Published: June 29 ::

The doctor said it was just a lymph node and it was nothing to worry about. On my left arm, in the pit of it is a round area about the size of a quarter quite swollen and somewhat painful. Under my left arm, where I learned there is an Epitrochlear Lymph Node; there is a lot of pain. The doctor had a blood test done for RA; which came back negative. I have a new doctor at the clinic, and this one seems to think it is nothing to worry about also. I wonder about the pain; if there is an infection that needs attention somewhere in my body. I seem to be the only one that cares about it. I would like to know what to do or where to go. Published: June 29 ::

After eating certain foods, my lymph nodes on one side of my throat just below the ear swells. It goes down with massage and or lots of water. I experience mostly discomfort and it is strange looking. Published: June 29 ::

I recently had a mammogram and it came back normal. I just started having pain under my left armpit mostly on the side. Is this something to be concerned about? I did a self breast check and cannot feel any lumps. I am also going through menopause. Published: June 29 ::
