Swollen glands by ear
Common Questions and Answers about Swollen glands by ear
swollen
I have had this discharge ever since and just in the past 3 weeks I noticed swollen neck glands, one swollen groin gland and an ongoing ear ache. Do you think the glands are responding to the infection in my body? What about the ear aches?
I have taken a 10 day dose of omnicef in the past 2 months but the discharge remains. I am scared to test knowing I gave my wife something. I am such an idiot.
Thanks for any insight or comments.
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 ???
I have had swollen glands in neck for about 3 months now along with light-headedness and achiness sometimes. Been to ENT, treated w/Prednisone and anti-viral... said I have inner ear virus. Days go by and some days symptoms better but most days stay the same. Gland swelling never goes down. What the heck is wrong with me? Had blood tests, head MRI, check ups, etc and nobody can find anything. I feel crappy every day. I am also fatigued every day even though I seem to sleep all night.
After about 3-4 days of being together with a lady i got a throat problem, I did not have a sore throat, it was more like swelling around neck, neck glands were swollen and I had a really bad case of swollen uvula and some redness around it with some small white patches. I am typically non-drinker and do not smoke. But on holidays, I did have around 5-7 tonics each night going out.
- Swollen armpit glands (not individual nodes, but a general swollen feeling) for 4 weeks, starting 23 days post exposure. Is this the normal timeline for acture HIV symptoms, and is this a common one?
- Could this be related to another STD anyones aware of?
- Does the Oraquick (gum swab) test provide the 80-85% accuracy at 4 weeks some people seem to be claiming, or does this figure only apply to blood tests?
About five days ago, I noticed one of the glands on the left side of my neck was a little sore and swollen. The next two days, I woke up with a bit of a headache and that heavy feeling in your eyes. I started noticing a bit of a fever - about 99.5. Now for the last two days, I have had up to 100.5 with white spots on my left tonsil and some pressure in my left ear. All the swelling/pressure is on the left side of my head/neck - but there's no pain or soreness in my throat.
My issue is that the 2 glands on the sides of my throat are swollen, the one inside my chin is swollen, something small and round below my left ear is swollen and something on the outside of my right ear is also swollen. I do not have a fever and I have not vomited at all, which is symptoms of most disorders that have to do with swollen nodes. They do hurt and actually the one below my left ear itches.
I found about 4 or 5 on the right side below my ear. My doctor discovered I also had swollen nodes under my arms and in my groin on both sides. About a year ago I had a CT scan that showed an enlarged spleen. What do you think of these findings? I am very worried. I feel fine and just completed 2 weeks of antibiotics for a sinus infection.
I was told i have a swollen salivary gland. i am in alot of pain. everytime i swallow its like needles in my ear and throat. what can i do to reduce the swelling and get rid of the pain. i m currently taking antibiotics. but its been 5 days and the pain does not subside.
I have slightly swollen glands and sore (nurofen) every four to six hours. Don't feel like I have infection anywhere should I go to doctor. Don't want to waste their time. Only had this for three days.
My lymph glands in my neck are so swollen that I think this is causing ear pain and problems swallowing? They have been swollen for 3 months. I don't have a temperature or night sweats and am not really tired anymore. Could it be an autoimmune disease or lymphoma?
Can you help me please? I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
I was diagnosed with Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (which I knew was a possibility) and while I was there I mentioned my swollen nodes to the P.A who saw me first and she said swollen glands are normal. The next day, I knew something wasn't right so I checked my whole body for Swollen glands and found a very hard immovable (feels fixed to the bone) where the bottom of my ear behind my earlobe meets my neck. It is not visible but i can feel it.
It is a viral infection(EBV virus)causing fevers, sore throat, and swollen lymph glands, especially in the neck.Diagnosed by mono spot test(takes only a few minutes, and can be done in a physician's office), Epstein-Barr virus antigen by immunofluorescence and Epstein-Barr virus antibody titers.
Most patients recover within 2-4 weeks without medication.
