Common Questions and Answers about Lymph glands swollen on neck

Avatar m tn i assume swollen glands in the neck means inflamed lymph nodes? our 6 yr. old was seen today for a fever and sore throat complaint. the ped. said she has a throat infection and swollen glands and prescribed meds. she did check other areas of her body for glands (at least that is what i think she was feeling for). about 7 weeks ago she had the same thing (tho the whole family passed around a fever/infection). should we be overly concerned that she has been sick like this twice in two months?
Avatar f tn A needle aspirate should be performed of the area and cytology to determine is the lymph nodes are up or a sialocoele which is when saliva leaks from the glands in the neck. If the diagnosis is still undetermined then a biopsy should be done. A second opinion is not a bad idea.
Avatar m tn About 3 months ago I got swollen lymph nodes under my arms, large, around my neck and under my collar bone, both sides and above my elbows, about 4 glands each side above my elbows. I now have a rash on my forehead and sometimes on my arms, which when I scratch turn bright red, like I could scratch my name in. I have a bright red rash around my neck which disappears when i touch it and reappears brighter after. After a shower it is bright red. Could this be lymphoma??
Avatar m tn Hello. I'm becoming increasingly worried about swollen glands in my neck. The swelling is located on either side of my neck, roughly half an inch below the mastoid process (these might be the upper cervical lymph nodes but I'm not sure). They can't be seen, but when I feel my neck they feel hard. I've had them now for about three weeks. My only other symptoms: a slight sore throat that comes and goes, and a very infrequent cough.
Avatar f tn I initially thought it was a knot in my muscle, but now I have swollen neck glands with no sore throat.
Avatar m tn I think this is right since you should have some symptoms if you had swollen lymph nodes. For example if you had retropharngeal swollen nodes then you may have a sore throat from an infection. I guess I do recall that they did measure my lymph nodes on a CT scan once and they thought I had lymphoma based solely on the lymph node near the hilar area. I had no symptoms and nothing wrong with my blood work.
Avatar n tn What is the difference between swollen glands and swollen lymph nodes in the neck?

Avatar m tn My whole neck on the sides was swollen, but it didnt feel like lymph nodes. Other places felt like lymph nodes on my neck. The ones on my neck and underarms were small but there were many. These are the only symptoms no rash, no fever. Would somone with ars have different nodes come on different days? Would the sore throat have come on the same day as lymph glands? Would the glands be large? I am getting test for HIV and Mono. Thanks!!!

1683208 tn?1305124695 you have lymph glands in the same area on either side of your neck below your jaw. if it is your lymph glands one or both can be swollen for several different reasons, most commonly when you have allergies but also when you are sick or have an infection. DO NOT push or poke and glands on any part of your body!

Avatar f tn I have HPV, as most know from previous posts, but I was wondering if anyone ever experienced swollen lymph glands at the side of the neck due to the body trying to fight off HPV? I have a lump at the side of my neck that my ENT says is most likely a swollen lymph gland, but when I mentioned the HPV to him he said that it would more likely affect the glands closer to the pelvis. I was just wondering if anyone else had something similar to this.

My doc says it is normal but I had to look it up myself. I will share the information below. Before I do Id like to add that there was a thread a few months back on this same topic....swollen glands, in which many shared that they also had the same issue. Also, I am 3 months post treatment and the swollen glands have gone down except for one.

Avatar f tn About 8 months ago I discovered that my dog had swollen glands in her neck. I went to two different vets who took a sample of the cells on THREE different occassions and each time is came up "Suspicious" but not definative. After 1 day of antibiotics the swelling went down by about 75% however never fully reduced. I notice again that the size has increased and she is not eating as normal and less active.
