I am right there with you! I have one under my chin and under my jaw both right side. They’ve been up for 2 months now. They don’t seem to change really, the chin one will get way smaller but the jaw one has stayed the same. The chin one recently swelled up again bigger but I’m not super worried I guess because it does hurt too.
Re: Painful glands going down?
Terrible isnt it. Have you seen a doctor? I've been battling a weird throat infection for weeks so I should just put it down to that but symptoms are just too weird and the infection seems to have gone now. I dont even know if they're swollen anymore but I have been getting pains like someone sticking a needle in them under my jaw. Then I keep thinking I have groin pain, chest pain and getting itchy. I dont know if it's just my health anxiety running wild. Considering going on anti depressants because i cant do this much longer.

I’m sure it’s just the infection you had. I’ve heard the nodes get take a while to go down after the infection settles. I’ve sadly touched mine every since I noticed them so idk if they’d be gone by now, had I left them alone. I did go to the doctor once ( she said they’re fine) and then I broke down and went to the ER where I begged for an ultrasound, they said my nodes are fine. I however can’t accept that so I have another app... this time with an ENT. Anxiety can cause soooo many weird symptoms especially chest pain! I am also at a point of idk what to do anymore and just can’t take it :( HA sucks!
Re: Painful glands going down?
Yep I'm the same. I feel them every day and pretty sure they've swelled up again today on the left hand side because of that. Its obsessive and I have ran out of ideas to stop it. I've had this virus for weeks which concerns me because I rarely get ill and when I do my immune system is really good. The logical part of me puts this down to stress and lack of sleep. I had a blood test last month which came back fine and doctors have checked my glands and said they're just responding to a virus. Still not enough reassurance for a complete maniac like me though :(

Which lymph nodes are up? The ones right under your jaw closer to your ear? What do they feel like?
I’ve been dealing with sinus issues for a while now. I took antibiotics and it only helped a little.

Yea those ones. I think they're the usual suspect during virus infection anyway they are naturally the biggest ones but the left one seems to be getting bigger and bigger. The fact that it's been going on for weeks just plays on my mind.
I had blood tests last month that came back normal I should take comfort in that but it's a struggle with HA sometimes. The mind runs wild.
