Common Questions and Answers about Antibiotics cause lymph nodes to swell

Yesterday afternoon I noticed that when I flexed my neck it hurt under my jaw all the way down to my collar bone. I am really not sure where my lymph nodes are in my neck so I don't know if that is what is sore or not. This morning my whole neck is stiff and I have shoulder and a little backpain as well as a headache . My face feels hot and flush too. I in general feel yucky. The antibioics are causing me to have some tummy issues too.
About 5 weeks after the sex, the lymph nodes in my right armpit began to swell and it was very painful. A few days later the same thing happened to the lymph node in my left armpit. I had no other symptoms.
The doctor gave me a 10 day supply of antibiotics. The antibiotics reduced the swelling a lot, and by the 10th day the armpits were back to normal.
Unfortunately, a few days after I stopped taking antibiotics the lymph nodes began to swell again.
Is this a symptom of HIV?
what caused your swollen lymph nodes?...i guess it just depends on what causes the lymph nodes to swell as to how long they will stay that way....i recently had swollen lymph nodes in my neck and armpit, but they went away after a couple of weeks and i had no apparent infection or anything---sometimes our bodies do strange things...the best thing to do is talk to your doctor and see what he/she says....feel better...God bless.
Hello,
A bee or wasp sting can cause a skin reaction with redness, swelling, itching, and pain. This is very similar to the appearance of skin that is inflamed by a bacterial infection - a condition sometimes referred to as cellulites. A wasp sting may also cause blistering with or without "brawny" swelling, which is when the skin feels thickened, warm, and bumpy to the touch.
What caused mine to swell, was a hair bump, that got infected. I was given antibiotics to clear it up. My dr said that your lymph node (vagina) will swell if you have an infection, from your waste down. This could be a cut on your foot or legs...and your lymph node can swell, because it's working overtime to kill off the infection.
I started taking my antibiotics last night, and the swelling has already started going down....yey!!!!
Impacted teeth that are symptomatic can cause a lymph node to react or swell. Pretty common actually. The teeth may not be currently be infected but be developing an infection. OR the swelling in the lymph nodes from the previous impacted teeth issue just hasn't gone away yet. That can take a bit of time. Are you going to have the other impacted teeth removed? It might be a good idea. I would not be concerned since you have a legit reason for the lymph nodes.
Any infection can cause lymph nodes to swell, and they don't have to swell evenly. Usually, when you have a cold, the infection is symmetrical and so are they lymph nodes, but this isn't always the case.
As for your infection spreading, I think you'd feel worse if that were the case, but the ENT should be able to tell you more definitively.
after 4 days of taking second series of antibiotics i began to feel other lymph nodes swell in armpit. my exposuer is unprotected vaginal sex, could this be a symptom of ars? i havent had any other symptoms that i know of, thank you for ur time.
very often the bacteria (Streptococcus) triger the immune system and the lymph nodes increase in volume. the lymph nodes are part of the immune system and they try to protect the body from the invaders (the so called patogens). the cause may be bacrerial, virus or fungi. you should consult a doctor and if it is confirmed that you have bacterial or fungi infection you should start a treatment with antibiotics. the quick Steptest can confirm the presence of bacteria.
One doctor told me he thought it was allergies but I am not sure if that causes lymph nodes to swell cause my ENT doctor said that allergies wouldnt cause my lymph nodes to swell. My PCP says that I could test my allergies to see what allergies I specifically have but I am already on Zyrtec and Veramyst nasal spray that seem to help for my allergies and that would not solve the lymph node problem.
many things can cause lymph node swelling. it's more common for them not to swell with a genital infection of any sort than for them to swell.
A parasitic infection could cause your lymph nodes to swell and they could become painful. You have to take certain types of antibiotics for parasites (anti-parasitic antibioitics). Some antibiotics that work on bacteria also work on parasites such as metronidazole. Some parasites can get into the brain or eyes. If it is from raw meat it may have been a tapeworm. A parasitic infection does make your Eosinophil count go up as well.
When my lymph nodes swell, they usually hurt, but sometimes they dont. My doctor told me that when lymph nodes swell, it is a way of your body telling you it is fighting an infection. Also it could be just little grease glands. I used to get them a lot I usually ignore them unless they remain swollen for more than 2 weeks. As far as the reasons they are endless, could be a simple cold or something serious.
question, in primary hiv infection, do the lymph nodes swell all at the same time or can they swell at different times. do they swell to a noticeble size, or can they be painful and small. the pain comes and goes. no night sweats, no rash, ocassional diarhea that i think is due to all the meds im taking, antibiotic, probiotic, med for blood pressure and cholesterol.
Cause it would make sense if I have a cold in my head or sinus infection or throat infection of some sort on that side of my head mainly for the lymph nodes on that side right near my sore throat to swell a little bit. So if it was hoc causing this cold/flu symptoms of runny nose, sneezing, coughing, sore throat would ALL of my lymph nodes also be swollen not just on one side of my neck? I just want to know for peace of mind.
what you are experiencing is swollen lymph nodes....the lymph nodes swell because they are trying to fight an infection...your dentist will give you antibiotics as infections in the mouth can be serious due to the amount of germs in the mouth (sometimes bacteria from your mouth can go to your heart and cause an infection there called endocarditis)---please get this taken care of asap..feel better and God Bless!
if you are having health concerns...see your doctor...it's not hiv related...
I could feel all of the lymph nodes in my neck beginning to swell. Its only the lymph nodes on the right side, as I got my right nipple pierced. I went back to the doctor today and saw the nurse practitioner. She doesn't think its an infection either but it might possibly be my body's reaction to the foreign object. She suggested that I take out the piercing but I begged for antibiotics. She agreed to give me antibiotics but if they don't work, the next step it to take it out.
