Hello,
As per my clinical experience, there can be reasons of swollen lymph nodes with low grade fever as:
- Low immune response
- Defective functioning of T and B cells
- Low hemoglobin
- Persistent primary infection
- Secondary flare of viral or bacterial infection
- HIV
- Use of immune suppressants
A sequential evaluation with HIV rapid test will rule out its possibilities.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.
