I can feel them on both sides think one maybe slightly larger than the other but they are both movable. I'm a. Bit worried as I've been having lung cancer symptoms

You're not trained to know what's a lymph node and what's not, and what feels normal, and what isn't. Please stop poking around the area though as you will only irritate it. Which therapy did your doctor recommend, have you started it?

I have to attend a Health Anxiety group this Thursday. It's not one-on-one therapy but it will help me learn how to manage my anxiety. What I feel is def a lymph node it's really worrying me as I've heard nodes in this area are almost aways related to cancer and I've already got a cough and weird weight loss.

Hi, I've been able to feel mine on and off for a few years now on both sides. Also one near my ear. Whenever I've been to a Dr they can never feel them!
