Hi, I've had swollen lymph nodes in my neck for a month now. They first popped up when I had an ear infection and laryngitis. There were lots of them and they were painful and made my neck tight. After a few weeks they all shrunk down and dissapeared apart from 2. So I've been left with one on each side of my neck in the exact same place. The left one is tiny and moveable. It's like a small pea. The one on the right is oval shaped. Sometimes it feels sausage shaped then oval again depending on how you move your neck. It feels around the size of a kidney bean maybe a bit bigger. All afternoon yesterday I put a heat pack on it as it was slightly tender. I kept repeating the process. By 11pm is had shrunk down by about 50% and I thought great it's going. I went to bed and when I got up this morning its rock hard again and back to its original size. I've also had a low grade fever for 2 nights. It starts in the afternoon and lasts all night. When I went to bed at 11pm it had finally returned to normal and it is normal again this morning. If it comes again this afternoon I'm going to be worried. I must also state that over the past 6 weeks I've had 3 separate occurrences of fevers, but one was when I had laryngitis and ear infection and the other was when I had Norovirus and now this one. Logic tells me they are all accountable. I've also got a dry non productice cough that started up again out of nowhere a few days ago. I've had a clear chest x-ray mid November and a clear full blood count last week. Why would a node shrink down with heat and then pop back up while I'm sleeping? Could this be a lingering infection even though my crp wasn't raised or could it be some sort of allergy? Lymphoma is always in the back of my mind, especially how hard the right node feels at time and isn't moveable as It's attached to a muscle, but logic tells me that a heat pad wouldn't shrink a cancerous node. I've also been having tingly lips and tingling in my collar bone and up to my ear. Any thoughts?
