Swollen Lymph Node In Neck

2 replies

Hello ladies. I noticed about a month and a half ago a lymph node on the side of my neck. It feels about the size of a dime. It feels harder than my other lymph nodes and doesn't move when I press on it. Can a harder lymph node that doesnt move be benign? My anxiety is spiraling and my insurance doesnt start until next month. Thank you in advance. Also not sick but do have a small cavity on that side that is getting filled next week.
Thank you!

Can you try to rest up and take it easy on yourself over the next few weeks. You might find the swelling goes down. If it doesn't, hopefully your insurance will cover whatever investigations or treatments you need. You might need to be careful when explaining when exactly the symptoms started.

Thank you I noticed it on July 2nd for the first time. Seems same size since then. Hard and doesnt move. No other symptoms. Only the one swollen.
