I am so worried and stressed out right now.
I have had swollen lymph nodes under my chin for about 4 weeks now. I had a stinking cold over half term and that turned into a sinus infection. I saw my GP and she gave me antibiotics and said the lymph node swelling was because of the infections.
I have been on the antibiotics for 4 days now and whilst the sinus infection is clearing, my lymph nodes feel the same. I am completely freaked out today as I have noticed a swelling just above my collarbone.
I consulted Dr Google and it kept coming up as a supra-clavicular lymph node, which is very serious if it swells and could be secondary cancer. I have felt so rubbish over the past few weeks and I am now absolutely freaked out and could throw up I am so worried.
Does anyone know if this gland can swell due to an infection, i.e sinusitis?
Thank you so much for reading.
