HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the lymph nodes then it may not be due to any disease, you have not mentioned what the symptoms your father is having if no symptoms are there then it is nothing to worry, and if it is the illness then that need to be sent for investigation accordingly, it is better to see the doctor for clinical examination such case needs this for right diagnosis hope this information helps.
