Hi everyone, I had a question about lymph node enlargement. I had my tumor removed in Novemeber, still dealing with mouth issues after that but they got clear margins and said to just keep following up, I go every month or so. I was obviously ecstatic about this, now I have found a swollen lymph node on the back of my neck, probably 1 cm to 1.5 cm. The issue I am having with this, is that I am not sick nor have I been sick recently. So of course I am freaking that it spread to lymph nodes. It is moveable but also not normal. Does this lead to concern? Should I just watch it for a couple weeks and see if it goes down or enlarges? Thanks so much!
