What Does Prominent Cervical Lymph Nodes On MRI Suggest?

Recent MRI indicates numerous prominent lymph nodes are seen throughout the bilateral cervical chain including mildly enlarged bilateral level IIa lymph nodes measuring up to 2.1 cm there is also a slightly prominent 1 cm left supra-clavicular lymph node. What does this mean?? Should I be concerned?

Good day and thanks for your question.
Yes, you should be concerned. Lymph node enlargement suggest something going on, either an infection or a cancer.
Please kindly see your doctor for further full blood check (full blood count), investigations for tuberculosis and an Endoscopy.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.
