Lymph nodes are part of the immune system and help fight infection. However, sometimes they can get swollen when fighting infection or due to cancer. In these cases, lymph node removal surgery may be needed. See what to expect from neck lymph node surgery and recovery in this video.
I got right after I healed from food poisoning. I was scared I was developing something worse, thankfully though I went to urgent care and it was explained to me. It still hurts a ton but I’m no longer scared of it being terrible
I have that problem but I didn't have money to come to our doctor 🥺 I need help
Maybe this what i have?
Is it related to Cancer
I had this operation done. I was able to see when the doctors' gloves were full of my blood. The spray that was used after making a cut on my neck was terrible. 😑
In the middle of the operation, I was able to feel the pain as my neck was cut, so the doctors again gave injection to you numb that portion.
Ive got a lump on my neck and ive had it for years now. My doctor said its a swollen lymph node and its never gone away. It is smaller now but ive also got a few small ones underneath my jaw, i think about 5 which is seriously worrying me. I havent got any of the symptoms except for it not going away, it doesnt hurt or does it affect my breathing eating etc so idk if i should be scared.
Mine came when i was 14 and hurting bad as heck
I woke up and i had this

I am having my right side of throat swollen from 2017. Had USGs and all other possible tests . Everything was normal . Only the size kept decreasing or increasing at different USGs. Doctors have prescribed me for an FNAC. Its only swollen 4 cm but its not hurting or paining or no such problems. From 2017 it remained swollen sometimes getting smaller or sometimes big that too upto 4 cm. This time it has decreased a bit. I am afraid to go for FNAC. PLS SUGGEST

I usually have this lateral neck mass when I am sick like having fever and cold but it just go away when I am healed.
Idk if I'm searching right but mine is totally different I'm hearing noise like bubble from my skull not neck
It all started when I felt a 1cm swollen lymph node beside my ear. It was painless, and I hade no viral infection or anything. Half a year later, more swollen lymph nodes popped up, 2 on my left back neck. Again, they were around 1 or 2 cm in diameter, and I had no symptoms whatsoever. All of them felt rubbery and can be moved around a tiny bit. I have had them for nearly a year now, help, I’m scared. I can’t even go to the doctors cause of my current situation, so can someone help? This is really urgent. What can I do????
does anyone have got lymph node biopsy behid ears???
If you have swollen lymph nodes. Doesn't necessarily mean it's infection that has caused it.. it also could mean there possibly there's something serious going on somewhere in your body. Is this correct???
I have had swollen lymph node on my left side of neck for few months. Had Mri and bisopy. They have said they want to do another bisopy and a full body scan. I am worried I might have cancer somewhere in my body. I question myself why they doing full body MRI scan now.?

Starts with pain on the first day and then the bumps start showing. On the 2nd or 3rd day i get extreme pain on my neck and shoulders leading to fatigue. The bumps reduce in size with time but they won't go. The pain also goes. What should I do?

IF ANYONE IS SUFFERING, GETTING PANIC ATTACKS , DEATH ANXIETY OR DEPRESSION BECAUSE OF A SWOLLEN BUMP BEHIND NECK.I WANT TO SAY TO ALL THAT ABOUT 'SIX MONTHS BEFORE
I GOT A SMALL BUMP BEHIND MY NECK AFTER 6 MONTHS OR MORE SO ,IT BEGAN TO GROW,BUT ONE DAY I WATCHED A LYMPH NODE VIDEO STATING THAT IT CAN BE FATAL AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAS A SMALL CHANCE OF CANCER,AFTER THAT I GOT SUDDENLY SAD,DEPRESS,PANIC ATTACKS AND DEATH ANXIETY.FOR MORE THAN WEEK ,I SUFFER THIS AND AFTER THAT I CHECK MYSELF TO A HOSPITAL AND THEN THEY TOLD ME TO DO SONOGRAPHY AND FNAC TEST SO AFTER DOING THAT THE RESULTS WERE STATING THAT IT IS NOT A LYMPH NODE SWELLING , IT WAS CYST UNDER SKIN DUE TO TRUMA OR HITTING IN THAT SPOT. SO REPORT WAS NORMAL. BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT DEATH ANXIETY, DEPRESION , HEALTH ANXIETY THIS ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN ACTUAL CANCER BECAUSE THIS ARE DIRECTLY AFFECT THE WAY OF OUR THINKING SO DONT GET PANIC JUST GO SOME PATHOLOGY LAB AND DO A FNAC TEST I AM SURE THE RESULT WILL BE NORMAL.😄

Like comments below, they can go away with time. Lymph nodes are import part of our immune system.
Is it like normal when to feel unusual pain or sore when crying?
I had lyphm node as a child maybe at the age of 13. It comes and disappear every Month or year. And I am quite worried. So much anxiety. At the age of 23.
Edit: I did small surgery earlier.
My node got bigger because of salivary gland stone. Which is infectious.
Mine appeared after I excessively drunk alcohol
I got it removed when i was 5 with my cousin when i got it out it was so bigggg and i felt some tingle after but its worth it trust me! Question can the lymph node come back
Mine was Lymphoma 🙂

Dec 11, 2022 I got food poisoning from eating Chipotle. Then a few weeks later I got a painful swollen lymph node under my chin called submental lymph node. It appeared Dec 24, 2022. After Christmas I am going to Urgent Care. It is the size of a golfball. It makes me look like I have a double chin. This is the first time I've had a swollen lymph node under my chin. I will come back and post my update here:
UPDATE:
I have both☠️
Keeps them from remembering or feeling any pain? So…I guess the myth is true….
Is anyone here have the trouble of breathing and sometimes a part of their neck hurts a little?
I thought i got tumours ro cancer
I felt small lump below my chin 6 year ago. But it was not paining though. But now my neck is swelling , I am feeling irritation on my face ,neck and on eyes. Please treat them as soon as possible don't let them untreated. They appeared occasionally but they can bother your life.
May tuberculosis at times and required biopsy.

Why has one side of my neck been swollen/bigger than the other for 5+ months after a cost appeared and went
My brother is 6 years old . He has enlarged lymph node in the anterior area of his neck. It is there for almost 2 years same size, painless, moveable but feel little hard. We have been constantly checking some ENT doctors, we also have done 2 times USG test its came out the same size for the both time 0.75cm ×1.88 cm .it is also came out that he has cervical adenopathy in the usg report. Does there any thing to worry? Or anyone also have the same problem?
hey guys.
i noticed a firm painless bump over 6 months ago on the back of my neck, which i discredited at first until i noticed more and more start to show up. it got to the point where there were hard bumps popping out of my head and roughly 20-30 painless nodes throughout my body. obviously that was concerning, but what was even more concerning was my skin itching, and slight hair loss. the more and more i watched these symptoms occur, the more and more i thought it was lymphoma. but it WAS NOT.
guys, health anxiety is a real thing and i completely understand what it feels like. but when you notice these things, try to take some deep breaths. the odds are not against you. chances are, you’re not dying. and it’s not cancer 😭 and you can spend months worrying about something that really isn’t what you think.
obviously it’s important to listen to your body and act accordingly as you see fit. but don’t freak out. start off by trying not to touch them, and getting exercise, changing up your diet, and getting more rest. it’ll be okay 🙂
Got 3 lined up vertically on the side of my neck they're sort of visible when i strech my neck, should i be concerned?
I have lymp node due to TB.. I am 4 months now drinking medicine….
I have noticed a small lump in the back of my neck. Maybe the size of a pea. I discovered it like 2 weeks ago. Visited a doctor and got told it’s nothing. I’m still worried about it though. It feels painless and not soft but not hard either. Except for the lump I haven’t had any other symptoms. I’m not even sure if it’s a lymph node or something else but the doctor told me it could be a slightly enlarged lymph node.
Should I be concerned about a lymph node in my jawline? I got it a little over a year ago when I got COVID-19. It's small and it doesn't hurt, but I've had it for a year now. I went to the doctor to get it checked out last year, and she said as long as I don't mess with it it'll go away. It still hasn't, though… 😅
I have several small swollen lymph nodes and one that is about 1 cm big and they hurt and the neck is stiff and mucus is always right above my throat
I got this after recover from fever and i can say that you need avoid touching it cause today i touch it alot and it sore 🤕
this calmed me down
Best

Bro I’m going threw dis shi rn dis shi hurt
Lymph nodes swelling is normal when fighting off something. It does not need to be removed from the body in most cases. It is very dangerous to remove a lymph node, sets you up for more problems later. Lymph nodes are junctions of your immune system.
I have a small lump or like meaty ball in my left side of my neck. It happened due to drinking cold and hot water and it s painful. Most part of my gums are so itchy and painful also it s spreading across from my neck, back from my ear, my temple and now, my half face are affected and it make me difficult to sleep. Even i only drink warm water, it s still hurt. Anyway, it s a cystic lump like feel something alive inside and it s spreading cause of itchiness and pain.
I have this and tanks very much I need this
I just had this surgery yesterday and just now i came home and it's not just a small wound for me well i didn't see it yet coz i have a large bandage all over my neck (I'm 15 yo)
I got also mine in the left part of the neck and having also fever, pain in the ears what should i do
I’m 18 now, noticed this lump on the right side of my neck right under my jaw. It never hurt at all but it was large and I could move it around it was also tender, but never hurt which was concerning. I thought it would go away but even after a year later I still have it. I also have smaller large lymph nodes on both sides of my neck. But none of them ever hurt they’re all the same, painless and tender but moveable. Had an ultra sound they measured the biggest one of my left as 3cm x 1cm (something around that) I have TERRIBLE anxiety because of it. I get very fatigue and nauseous but I know it’s all in my head. I’m still getting it checked out so hoping it’s nothing bad. My doctor keeps telling me to watch it to see if it goes away but I will get more tests done because I’m never calm about it. Overall, it hasn’t affected my health other then my anxiety which is only mental but it is scary I have no family history of cancers or tumors or anything like that but I was very sick before I noticed my lymph nodes were swollen so hopefully it’s nothing bad.

I found myself dealing with swollen neck glands and intense pain, which turned out to be caused by mumps, a viral infection. Initially, my concern led me to scour the internet for answers, stumbling upon alarming videos discussing the possibility of neck cancer. However, upon consulting a specialist, I was swiftly reassured when they immediately identified the issue as mumps. This experience highlighted the increasing prevalence of mumps as a viral infection in urban areas like Delhi.
