Over 2 months from the end of my tx and my neck has been swollen from what my RO says is fluid from my lymphnode system. He suggested pinching the skin up and dowm the neck to move the fluid out. Is this the best way to handle this? Any input would be greatly appreciated. He said this would eventually get hard and permanent if I didn't work the fluid out. Thanks.
