Anyone here have swollen lymph nodes?

Anyone here have swollen lymph nodes?
I've had like 4 under my jaw for over a year.
Keep going to the doctors and they say they're not concerned but when i google it, it says it could be cancer so like what the fuck?
Does anyone else here like have these?

Yep had a big lump on my neck... turned out to be non hodgkins lymphoma... still hear 14 years later.

Get a biopsy and blood test to check for cancer. Never ever EVER trust what a doctor says. There is a reason they refer you to specialists as more often than not Doctors dont know shit.

Specialists are doctors too...
Just don't ask a specialist about something outside their area.

damn what the hell?
Thats terrible.
Mine arent that big and havent grown in a year.
what stage did you get diagnosed?

i asked for a biopsy but the doctor told me no.
Thats why i have like no clue what to do anymore.

My lymph nodes got really swollen in my mid-20's for seemingly no reason. When I finally went to the doctor about it, they did some bloodwork and found out I have full-blown aids.

swollen lymph nodes are a sign of HIV. Go get tested

i got blood work done everything was normal there.
it just that lymphoma doesn't always show up in a blood test.
part of why im worried.

You probably don't need it. Doctors know when to order tests for shit and you probably don't meet the criteria. Doctors tend to use better resources than WebMD and Google if they need help.

One of my posterior auricular nodes has been swollen for two decades. HUGE too. Dr. didn't give a shit. Said don't worry about it. Never did.

They’re part of your immune system. They literally swell up for anything you breathe in that’s considered foreign. If you get sick they swell. Allergies kick up they swell. It’s your body doing it’s job. Your fine.

Doctors also dont give a shit about their patients, they care about their wallets and their vacation homes

Yeah i understand but, from what i read, they're supposed to go back down.
Its been a year and i dont seem to have any signs of infection nor do i smoke or do anything else like that.

I'm sorry that you've had some bad doctors in the past.

I wouldn't worry about it, I've got an inflamed one in my groin area, had it checked by 2 different doctors at an STD clinic (they do general chicks take blood n shit for STD tests) and they both said it's a common thing and isn't anything to worry about

Altho 4 under your jaw sounds a bit worse than my singular large one that i've had for 4 or so years (that I was aware of)

NVM Just checked, it's gone now.

Only thing that changed is I went vegan (thanks Sup Forums)

My Dr assured me that it was nothing.
Get a phone call from wife crying two weeks later saying you have to go to the hospital NOW.
Turned out to be a total head fuck more than anything.
But my nanna died within six months of being diagnosed.

wtf lol, guess im going vegan

I've either got a cyst or a swollen posterior cervical lymph node, it's been like that for years. I don't know if it matters, but I did have mono back in 2009, although I feel like this has been around for longer than that.

I started lifting as well maybes that helped, my body can now build muscle instead of tumours

Everyone’s is stupid here. If you still have your tonsils that may be the case. I had the same problem, had tonsils removed now I feel better than ever
