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.
Avatar f tn Since he was the age of 11 months I have noticed a lump on the left side of his neck. It appears to be a swollen lymph node and is mobile. I have brought it to the attention of our family doctor, a walk-in clinic doctor and his pediatrician and they all have only ran a CBC (blood test) and shrugged it off. His results of the test came back within normal range all three times. The mass has not changed in size, but is still there. His doctors don't seem concerned, but as a mom I am.
Avatar m tn ve woken up feeling like the gland in the left side of my neck is slightly swollen, tender to the touch. Last week i had swollen glands (or maybe just ingrown hairs?) in my armpit areas (both sides), but this occurs periodically over the past several years. I don't appear to have a cold or any kind of respiratory infection, or any other new symptoms. Is this something I should be concerned with because I don't have a cold or infection that i know of?
Avatar m tn The glands in my neck (under my jaw) have been swollen for about 4 months now. They have never really hurt. But i've been getting sick (mainly just symptoms of a cold. Runny nose, post nasal drip or a headache a few times. And once i had a sore throat) off and on the whole time. Though, when i do get better i still have mucus that i'm hawking up throughout the day (its usually clear or bright yellow).
Avatar f tn People more knowledgeable than I will respond concerning your question (Did you mean swollen glands in his neck?) but my first thought was that this treatment can affect the thyroid. I hope you will get some answers soon, but I wouldn't worry, the worst seems to be over for him. All the best to you and your husband.
Avatar m tn I have had sore, swollen glands in my neck for over 3 weeks. My Dr. agreed they were swollen but ruled out lymphoma as I had had some blood tests but they were done before I had these symptoms. I don't feel it would be lymphoma, but I thought maybe some kind of virus as I am running a low grade fever from 99.3 to 100.3. My "normal" is usually 97. I was taking an antibiotic (Bactrim) for an abscess I had on my buttock caused by a bee sting probably. Another Dr.
Avatar n tn I have several swollen lymph noides in neck already had ultrasound and waiting on results of cbc test Two years ago i had tyhroid cancer have had negative nuclear scans since then wondering if this could be a different type of cancer.
Avatar m tn hi there, I would not be that worry, once they started school , all kind of sickness will happen because it is a different enviroment . after a year or so she would be fine. my daughter had the same when she started school the first year but she is doing much better now. it is normal for the first years just because they are mixing with different kids ands yes they will get sick.
Avatar n tn The prednisone helped my swollen tonsils, but the glands in my neck keep getting worse. No ibuprofen helps the pain of it, which is causing me a lack of sleep. Is there anything else I have possibly overlooked? I'm not exhausted all the time at all. my entire neck is killing me and behind my ears and head, occasionaly my jaw and armpits too. The headaches are barely managable and I am not sure what else it could be.
Avatar f tn I really appreciate your help. I was wondering if you could tell me a bit more about the types of swollen glands you were dealing with, and if there was an achiness to them - I feel an achiness in them, or maybe it's the glands pressing on something in my neck, I'm not really sure. But certainly worried.
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 n tn I have swollen gland (big size)left below my ear, so many small glands left side of the neck, at the time of starting it is painful after that without swollen remains. My doctor diagnosed this is a TB. but the same time Toxoplasma & antinuclear antibody is positive. Now i am started taking medicine fot TB. my doubt isafter compleating anti tuberculosis medicine these glands will go off!!! I am a Hypothyroid patient... If any one have any comment on this PLEASE ...
Avatar f tn Hi :) I have a strange situation. About 2 weeks ago I noticed I had swollen gland on the back of my neck I believe it is the cervical gland. It doesn't hurt it is just strange. I did have the doctor feel it and he said it was fine. Okay around the same time that I noticed the glands, I was eating dorito's and I accidently swallowed a piece that got stuck in my throat.
Avatar m tn My glands in my neck (just under jaw bone and down side of neck) have had a dull ache for the last week or so. i havent acquired a sore throat and feel fine in myself although sometime have had headaches as well. Today the right side of my groin has started a dull ache as well...could these be connected due to the glands in the areas... no other glands appear to aching (armpit and stomach) I have just been taking ibuprofen for the time being.
Avatar f tn Obviously I am worried that my glands have been swollen for what seems like months and further more swelling in the clavicle gland (thanks to google) never seems like a good thing not to mention the stone hard gland on the other side of my neck!!
Avatar n tn My 5 year old dachshund has swollen glands in his neck. I checked in other areas and I don't feel anything swollen,just only in his neck. Aside from cancer, I want to know if there's any other infections or anything that he could have. He was checked in November as a check up at the Vet's appointment, and he was fine. But that was in november and it is March now, so there could be something wrong?
Avatar m tn While Hepatitis A vaccine can cause blisters, fever and swollen glands in the armpit, neck or groin. Meningitis vaccine can also cause fever, pain, weakness and swollen glands in armpit, groin. Some side effects which occur usually do not need medical attention. They are self-limiting and can go away on their own. It is difficult to confirm whether it had occurred due to the vaccine or any other cause.
Avatar f tn Well, it is possible that you got an initial reaction from the injury. The lymph nodes swell due to various reasons. Usually an infection, and they take quite a while to go down. Since you feel better hopefully they will go down and you shouldn't have any other problems.
Avatar m tn Now my glands are swollen in the neck and getting slight fevers and it will not go away. She seems to practice safe sex since she was adamant using condom for sex but I did not engage.I am concerned she is a party girl and messes with tourists and may be infected and infected me. I have made contact on her status and she says she is clean and has been tested as part of her work permit, I believe the last 12 months. The symptoms I have are weird and will not clear up.
Avatar m tn have you ever had your thyroid levels checked. When I got my thyroid removed it was because the glands in my throat had gotten swollen to the point I could hardly swallow. I hope you find out whats going on and that's its nothing really bad.
Avatar n tn I now am experiencing a feeling of a lump in my throat when I swallow and the front of my neck seems swollen or enlarged. It is very difficult to swallow if my head is even slightly titled up. What could be causing this?
Avatar f tn s more likely to be the lymph nodes in the genital area that are swollen than in the neck area. That said -sometimes you have more than one thing going on ( caught another illness that left your body susceptible to infection with herpes in the first place ). The best thing to do is to see your provider.
Avatar f tn I initially thought it was a knot in my muscle, but now I have swollen neck glands with no sore throat.
