Brief Answer:
Hi,

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
With your history in my opinion you should first go for your lymph node biopsy to rule out the cause.
There are three main possibilities in your case-
1) Infection
2) Lymphoma
3) Breast cancer at an advanced stage.


In my opinion you should consult a cancer specialist and go for MRI along with biopsy.
Please revert me back with your biopsy reports.
I think I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
