Avatar m tn I have 1 swollen gland on the left side of my neck.
Avatar n tn I have also had constantly swollen glands at the back left side of the neck and near my left armpit since fall. The upper part of my neck swells up a lot, too, sort of like a huge double-chin running from one end of the jaw to the other. My throat feels tight, like everything inside is swollen and pushing against each other. It doesn't feel like strep and doesn't really hurt. I have been on two different antibiotics -- cephalexin and ???
Avatar f tn He has recently had a cold and I am wondering if these lumps could just be swollen lymph glands. Is it possible to have two swollen glands on the same side of the neck? He has had normal energy levels but still seems to be "stopped up". Any comments appreciated. I posted a picture of his neck. Thank you.
Avatar f tn For several months now I have noticed a lump on the right side of my neck. I initially thought it was a knot in my muscle, but now I have swollen neck glands with no sore throat.
Avatar f tn hi, was reading all letters, god , i going through the hell at the moment, i lost my husband just 16 month ago, to the cancer, now i m so scared of everything.
Avatar m tn 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. My doc prescribed me with some antibiotics to see if they help.
1626225 tn?1306459118 I have sharp pains like lighting on the left side of my head from bottom of my neck where the glands are to behind the ear and some times they are so sharp that it leaves the area kind of numb. They last about 2 seconds. My neck is very tender and the doctor thinks that it might be related to my acid reflux problems. can anyone help me.
Avatar f tn I also forgot to mention that I have started having pain on the upper left side of my neck. It started shortly after the glands under my ears became swollen and painful. I think they must be related in someway...but it still doesn't explain the lymph nodes I have that are painless and constantly swollen...
Avatar f tn They did eventually clear up all my symptoms and also the swelling in the neck throat glands and neck glands went away. Sortly after that about 2 weeks later I noticed I had swollen neck glands again but that only lasted a week then went away completely. Early decemeber I noticed my neck glands were swollen again. That followed by a dry throat and small cold that only lasted about 3 or 4 days those symptoms disappeared but my swollen neck glands continued to say.
Avatar n tn are the swollen glands behind the ears on each side of the neck? or you mentioned cheeks. If so it could be TMJ but if behind your ears it could also be your salivary glands. See, if they become swollen more often. mention it to your doctor. There is a disease of the salivary glands call sjogrens syndrome. I pray you do not have that.
Avatar n tn I have a very enlarged area directly over my left side of my collorbone, it appears to ne a swollen gland, the other side of my neck area is slightly swolllen but the left side is definitly large. It is swollen in the area just above my collor bone and directly under left side of neck. Now it has come and gone for the last several months and each time it gets enlarged it is painless but everyone notices it and I seem to always feel dizzy with general ill feeling, but no other symtons.
Avatar n tn Are you concered that you may have HIV? If so what was your risk?
Avatar m tn I have swollen nodes under my arms (3 each side), my groin (3 each side), above my elbows(3 each side) and my neck (2 large and 1 small on the right and 2 large and 3-4 small ones on the left). They don't hrt to touch. They are each 2-3 cms apart from those above my elbow which are smaller. In the last couple of weeks I have got spots on my forehead. I itch all over and have red patches in various places like on my knees and my arms.
Avatar n tn I had a heavy cough about 3 weeks ago that has since faded. Since then, I have experienced moving discomfort from my left ear, to the angle of my jaw on the left side, and now stiffness / general discomfort in my neck under my jaw. My throat is pink, but tonsils are swollen. The left side of my tonsil wall is wavy, instead of the normal smooth. The top of one of the "waves" on the left side has a small white crest that looks like a cancor sore.
Avatar f tn I was tested for STDs about 6 weeks after the incident (not HIV tested though) and all tests came back negative, Within the past week, the glands in my neck, underarms and right side of my groin have been swollen (I can feel them when I push on them) and I am very tired. I have been researching HIV and now I am terrified that is what it is!!!! I know I should get tested. Any other advice?
Avatar n tn I have two pea size lumps on the right side of my neck. One is about 1/2 way down my neck the other is just about 1/2 inch below that close to my colar bone felt more when i extend my neck back. At times the lumps feel larger and sometimes smaller. I also had a cough that is going away for about 2 weeks now which produced clear sputum at times. I also had my thyroid removed about 2 years ago. The lumps are both movable and not painful. Can this be some sort of cancer.

Avatar n tn I am not sure where the glands are swollen. Neck lymph nodes can be the result of tonsillitis, pharyngitis (infection of upper throat), infection in mouth, caries in tooth, internal ear infection, outer ear infection, eczema, dermatitis, dandruff, breast cancer, fungal infection, other cancers like lymphoma etc. If you had flu like symptoms initially then it could be due to infectious mononucleosis too.

Avatar m tn Then 2 days later they were on the back of my neck and underneath my arm pits(same day). 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?
Avatar n tn my 15 months old has two firm to hard pea sized nodules on her posterior hairline, one on each side of the nape of her neck. they r mobile and under the skin. could they be the lymph nodes?
975514 tn?1324997938 My glands are always swollen under my jaw, which makes my neck and ears hurt all of the time. Would this have anything to do with my thyroid? Should I bring this up to the Dr. at my endo appt. next week or will I sound like a weirdo if I do?
Avatar f tn old female cocker spaniel has swollen glands. I noticed Sunday morning after I had shaved her neck that she is razor burned and I can see leaking fluid come from her neck now. Is there any medications I can give her without taking her to the vet? I was recently laid off and low on funds.
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.
Avatar n tn I took it at about 6pm and half way through the night, my neck (sternocleidomastoid near where it connects to my head) was very sore and swollen, my glands dont seem swollen though. Also felt sinus congestion and all around lousy. I have felt this way for over 60hours. Is this a side effect of Azithromycin? Does anyone have any other info for what might cause this?
Avatar f tn Anyways the Tonsilitus has since cleared, but my glands have not gone down and the swelling of my left glands has in fact spread down the left side of my neck and into my clavicle gland on the left side which scares me!
Avatar f tn I think there is slight swelling on the left side of my neck but not very noticeable. Obviously I will keep an eye on my symptoms and if they get worse, I will seek medical attention. But does anyone have any idea what this could be? No coughing and no fever as well.
Avatar n tn Hers is usually on the right side of the back of her neck, close to her hairline at the base of her skull. On each side of the back of your neck there is a tendon, thats where hers would appear. When our family doctor first looked at it, he said he could drain it in a minor surgery. She was 14 yrs. old then and what he said freaked her out. So we got a second opinion from another doctor who sent her to a Physical Therapist.
