Recurring prominent lymph nodes

2 replies

Hello, just wanting to know if anyone else has experience with this? I’ve had prominent lymph nodes on both sides of neck, with GP referring for needle biopsy and ultrasound on two occasions.. eventually they shrink down (not completely though).

However they seem to reoccur on both sides and I’m just wondering why these keep returning? The pattern is very random, and not after colds etc.
Anybody else experienced this?

Yes. I've had this for about 3 months but I've no idea what is causing it. I went to the GP but very little was done (I presume I'll have to go back to be taken more seriously). Sorry I'm not more help.

Could it be allergies or an infection? Have you been tested for glandular fever?

Hi, I was just wondering if you have ever got to the bottom of this? I had a swollen painful lymph node in my neck while I had a covid a few years ago. Got it checked at doctors as it was still raised after 4 weeks. They didn't seem concerned and it did eventually go down however every now and again it pops back up. This does sometimes coincide with a cold but not always. It is tender to touch and can be achy. Did yours eventually go down?
