Had An Allergic Reaction To A Tick Byte. Fever Cleared. Swollen Lymph Nodes. Now?

Hello. I had an allergic reaction to a tick byte (blood work came back negative for all tick related illnesses) and my left groin lymph nodes swelled considerably and were very painful; I also had a fever. The doctor gave me antibiotics and my fever cleared and I started feeling better, but my lymph nodes remained swollen. I had also been physically active and thought maybe it was a hernia , but a surgeon said it was definitely swollen lymph nodes and they can be painful. It s been about 6 weeks now and the lymph nodes are decreasing in size, but they seem to be rupturing as I get a slight bit of pain and then a bruise shows up in that region. Do I have reason to be conserned or is this normal and eventually correct itself? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hello,
Thanks for posting to HCM,
Now Treating an infection causing the swollen lymph node, for example, will result in the lymph node swelling to subside.
