If the doctor wasn't concerned, you shouldn't be either.
FWIW, I did have one in that location and it was up for YEARS. Seriously, years. Doc wasn't concerned, ran some bloodwork but all was well. I just noticed a few months ago that it went down and I can't feel it anymore. So go figure.
Lymph nodes can come up for any number of reasons, it's just a sign your immune system is working.
On the road of experience, join in the living day. If there's an answer it's just that it's just that way.

Sometimes I fly like an eagle, sometimes I'm deep in despair.
Also - some people have more prominent nodes than others. Trust the doc!
