Painless Lumps On The Neck, Fatigue. Had A Surgery On The Nose. Family History Of Lymphoma. Worried
Hi i am Heidi a 37 yr old female i have found 2 small lumps on the left side of my neck. They are not painful approx size is about 2cm for each. I have no other symptoms apart from fatigue but that is quite normal for me not a recent symptom. I have recently had ENT surgery on my nose and am on a preventative course of antibiotics so i should not have an infection currently . I have a family history of Lymphoma my Auntie died from this several years ago.
Hi, The duration of the lump should be mentioned. Initially nothing to worry about. This may be due to infection though infective lymph nodes are generally painful. Anyway continue the antibiotic course if after two weeks the size does not regress then other possibility to be ruled out. Do not think about lymphoma right now because there are other common diagnosis to be ruled out first.
