Suggest Remedy For Swollen Lymph Nodes

I have had swollen lymph nodes in my axilliary area for two yrs and I never really stopped to think about it. I went for a mommo and sono of the breasts yesterday and the sono tech advised me to get this looked at very soon. I saw my dr. today and she did a very thorough exam. She stated that I also have swollen nodes in my neck, abdomen, chest, and groin areas. Also some of the nodes were hard and deep. The radiologist that read all my reports yesterday said that both my mammo and sono were normal. I do not have an STD or HIV. I am scared and I was wondering if there were some not so serious reason s why this is occuring.

swollen lymph nodes are symptoms of either infection in the nearby area or it is due to tumor in the lungs,breast,neck or abdomen.
i want you to get fully evaluated by a physician immediately to know the cause of lymphnode enlargement.
if the cause is because of infection nothing to worry about and treat the infection
hope this explains
