So, I know that lymphnodes swell. Some are even palpable all the time. I have a few. They are small, soft and moveable. I have been getting over some serious sinus drainage and an infection for the past two weeks. I have two lymphnodes swollen around the right ear. One is shrinking but one has remained the same since I found it. This one feels hard, also pea sized and does not seem to move. I really don't want to assume the worst. Has anyone experienced a similar lymphnode?
