Have another question. I had lymph nodes removed from right side of neck and the removed some from left just to check. So here's my question its been almost 4 weeks post surgery and neck still swollen. I know everyone is different,but for those who had this done how long it take for swelling to go down. Kinda guessing that's why I can't pass swallow text. Thanks for your help!


just found out I have squamous cell cancer 11/11/14
stage 4 lower right jaw bone 11/21/14
stage 2 lymph node 11/21/14
surgery 12/30/14 16 hour. Removed lower right jaw. All lymph nodes from right side of neck,and checked some on left side. The margins all came back clear. Radiation and chemo next
