Question:

Answers:
Please schedule an appointment to go to your doctor immediately. No one here, myself included, is qualified to give you an answer. I had a similar problem (in the armpit as well), and it turned out to be a cyst the size of a gumball. It was removed under local anesthetic. My arm was sore for a day or two, and then I was fine. However, I am not implying you have a cyst in your's as well. What I am suggesting is you make a doctor's appt. first thing tomorrow morning.

I can only help you if your are afraid you're NOT stupid..don't worry, you are!

go see your Dr. better safe than sorry. it's better to catch it and take of it early. If not it could become a much worse issue. The only way to calm your fear is to know what it is for sure

Are they painful? Swollen? If not sounds normal.

don't worry.sometimes when the body is fighting something, the nodes will swell up (also on the sides of your neck and behind your ears), and also will swell for no good reason. It only lasts for a few days.if longer than a week or becomes painful and warm, see the doctor.

have had the lymph nodes removed from right side of my neck. this event happened 4yrs ago and A OK since. no sweat.

Lymph nodes can be cause by lots of things, it could be caused by poping a pimple i get those alot, but to be sure you should get it checked

You should still have it checked by a doctor just to be safe and to ease your fears.

When I have a health concern I type it into ask.com and it brings up a diagnosis tool where you answer yes or no and depending on your answer it goes to a new page where you click the answer that best describes your or answer yes or no again and then depending on that answer and so on you will travel through pages to reach an answer that tells you if you should go to the doctor or not. It is a very helpful tool. You might have to do a little digging on ask.com to find it, but it is there. Good Luck.

How can you label them lymph nodes and not cysts? Your lymph nodes are always there, but yours may be swollen because your body is trying to fight off an infection. If they don't go away in a couple/few weeks then go have your doctor take a look to see if it is anything you need to worry about.

Depends do you have any abcess on you arm? If yes this could be an infection from that and you should go to the dr's a.s.a.p If not, I don't know what it could be maybe you should go to the dr's just in case. it could be something you should take care of now rather than later. Hope you find out everything is fine though.

any kind of moveable node should be checked out ASAP.
