What Causes Fatigue And Chest Pain While Suffering From Swollen Lymph Node?

Hello,I am a 32 yr old female. I received a CT scan of neck w contrast due to a swollen lymph node aka palpable mass that has been on my right posterior triangle of my neck for three months. The results say it appears normal but is 3 mm. I also have a likely prominent external jugulr venous structure. My chest has been greatly congested. i have severe fatigue and breast and chest pain for almost a year. ultrasound and mammogram are clear. My head itches constantly. My voice has changed and numerous other symptoms has occurred over a year. Can the swollen lymph node be caused by something in my chest? and the prominent vein? Or can it be lymphoma?

Hi,

The lymph node you have in neck can be due to the 1 year respiratory complaints you have I would suggest complete CBC, Mx skin test and X-ray chest along with sputum test for acid and also suitable antibiotic. Secondly, constant itching of scalp (lice infestation of dandruff) can cause inflamed lymph node, this too needs treatment and self care. In short, you need a through physical examination and needful investigations followed by expert advise for management. Please consult a chest physician.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
