What s going on with swollen lymph nodes on the left and right sides of the neck?

What you're referring to may be the head and neck lymph nodes behind the ear. Cough and sputum production are manifestations of inflammation of the upper respiratory tract and, if frequent, can cause associated lymphadenopathy, such as postauricular lymph nodes, preauricular lymph nodes, submandibular lymph nodes, anterior cervical lymph nodes, posterior cervical lymph nodes, and supraclavicular lymph nodes. These are superficial lymph nodes that can be felt on the surface of the body.

The simpler way to check is to touch the right and bow to the right, and the left to the left (to relax the relevant muscles, let the ** relax, and be conducive to the examination). The tests include: size, hardness, whether the boundaries are clear, and how well you can move (i.e., whether you can push with your fingers).

Lymphadenopathy caused by frequent upper respiratory tract infections is caused by fibrous connective tissue proliferation of lymph nodes, which is within the normal range, relatively hard (no manifestation of fluid accumulation in the mass), good mobility (refers to a certain degree of mobility due to the outer capsule), and clear demarcation from the surrounding tissues.

If you meet the requirements I explained above, don't worry about the lymph nodes, pay attention to your body, and don't get infections too often. But it's almost impossible to get it to subside. Because there is already a growth.

If not, such as unclear demarcation, poor mobility, etc., see a doctor immediately!

ps: I also have one on my neck, because of my poor health when I was a child, old colds, tonsil inflammation.

Normally, there is no lymph in the neck that can be felt. Cervical lymph is the most common. The causes of its swelling are often sore throat of the neck, colds, tonsillitis, rhinitis, etc., and sometimes the lymph nodes in the corresponding area are swollen due to scalp scratching, hair dyeing, etc.

Once the inflammation in the area is controlled, the swollen lymph can persist for some time. If the diseases that cause lymphoma are completely healed and no longer occur, the lymph will slowly subside. If there is repeated inflammation, lymph is permanent.

Because lymph is sometimes chronic and the effect of taking medication is not obvious, some doctors only need to determine that the lymph is not caused by a tumor based on the location and texture of the lymph. Take the approach of observation. Do not take medication.

It is hoped that the individual's own resistance will overcome the infection and the lymph will subside on its own.

Most people will subside after the above conditions are cured, and some patients can become chronic, and they will not go away. As long as it doesn't hurt to be big, it's not a big problem. Be careful, but there are also a few reactions that can be caused by tuberculosis or metastases from tumors.

If you are not at ease yourself, a puncture will be the same as an injection, and it will not hurt too much. A test will make it clearer. An outpatient procedure can also be done to remove the lesion and confirm the diagnosis.

In children, some pimples of different sizes can sometimes be felt behind the ears, neck, under the jaw, and at the base of the thighs, which are mostly mobile and can slide under the skin, and these small bumps are lymph nodes. Because lymph tissues, especially lymph nodes, develop rapidly within 1 year of age, healthy children may feel lymph nodes in superficial parts of the body, such as behind the ears, neck, under the jaw, armpits, and at the base of the thighs (i.e., groin). However, the normal lymph nodes in these parts are generally not more than the size of soybeans, and there are many single ones, with a soft texture, which can slide under the skin, and do not stick together with the surrounding tissues.

However, lymph nodes should not be palpated under the chin, supraclavicular fossa, and elbows.

In some abnormal cases, lymph nodes can also become abnormally enlarged. Lymph nodes make lymphocytes in the blood, and these lymphocytes act as a defense against bacteria. The lymph nodes in each part are connected to nearby organs or tissues by channel lymphatic vessels, just like the "sentinels" around the body, which can destroy the bacteria and prevent the bacteria from spreading outward when the adjacent tissues or organs are attacked by bacteria.

As a result, the lymph nodes themselves are swollen, can be felt with the hand, and are painful or tender. Therefore, it is possible to infer the location of the infection caused by bacteria from the location of the swollen lymph nodes. For example, submandibular lymphadenopathy may be caused by inflammation of the mouth and pharynx, and head-occipital lymphadenopathy may be caused by inflammation of the head and back of the neck.

It is advisable to go to the hospital to rule out other diseases.

How do you know it's a lymph node?

If so, nearby tissue infections may be complicated by swollen lymph nodes.

It's not a big deal, just go to the doctor and find out the cure.

It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time for examination, and if problems are found, the hospital will give different plans according to the different conditions of each patient.

There are many causes of lymphadenopathy in the right neck, including local inflammatory infection, tuberculosis of the right cervical lymph nodes, lymphoma of the right neck, and lymph node metastasis of malignant tumors. If you find that the lymph nodes in the right neck are swollen and scattered, you should seek medical attention in time, make a clear diagnosis, and avoid delaying the condition.

1. Inflammatory infection: Swollen right lymph nodes caused by viral or bacterial infection, such as acute tonsillitis, right acute mumps, gingivitis and other diseases may cause swollen lymph nodes in the right neck, most of which can be accompanied by local pain symptoms. Amoxicillin capsules, ribavirin granules and other drugs can be used according to the doctor's instructions**, and the swollen lymph nodes can slowly subside after general inflammation is controlled;

2. Tuberculosis of the right cervical lymph nodes: cervical lymphadenopathy caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, generally chronic hunger or severity. As the disease progresses, lymph nodes may become caseous necrosis, liquefaction internally, form abscesses, or even rupture and be confirmed by needle biopsy.

It is necessary to standardize the application of anti-tuberculosis drugs** under the guidance of professional doctors, such as isoniazid tablets, rifampicin capsules, pyrazinamide tablets, ethambutol hydrochloride tablets, etc., combined with surgery if necessary**;

3. Right cervical lymphoma: It is a malignant tumor of lymphoid tissue, mainly including Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In the early stage, lymphadenopathy is manifested, and the progression of the disease is lymphadenopathy, which causes symptoms of local compression of surrounding tissues or organs, fever, itching, pain, etc.

Through CT, MRI and other examinations, lymph node biopsy can confirm the type of lymphoma, which requires timely surgery**, and combined with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted drugs** and other comprehensive ** after surgery**;

4. Malignant tumor lymph node metastasis: such as the advanced stage of malignant tumors in the nasopharynx, thyroid, lung, etc., can lead to the metastasis of the right cervical lymph nodes, swollen lymph nodes and other symptoms. And actively carry out a comprehensive combination of surgery, supplemented by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, to control the development of the disease.

The lymph nodes are swollen, which disease is causing it?

Look at whether there is an obvious cause for swollen lymph nodes

Lymph nodes do not become inflamed and swollen for no reason, they are all caused by inflammation (such as inflammation, wounds, etc.) in their vicinity. If there is this inflammation nearby, then the disease of the lymph node is ordinary lymphadenitis.

Second, look at how active the lymph nodes are:

If you push it with your fingers, if it has good mobility, and if the lymph node is not adhered to the surrounding ** and muscles, it is also lymphadenitis. It's not lymph node tuberculosis, and it's not a big disease like cancer or tumor that you are worried about, and you don't need to do such and such instrument examinations.

Three look at the length of time lymphadenopathy is swollen:

To distinguish between common lymphatic diseases and lymphoma, you can also distinguish them from the length of time: lymphadenitis and lymph node tuberculosis can exist for many years, but the support time of lymphoma will not be long (the respectable and amiable Luo Jing, the country's top expert consultation**, from the onset of the disease to death is only 10 months).

The fourth is to do a puncture or cut a biopsy, which can confirm the diagnosis with both of them. However, patients are generally reluctant to go for a biopsy or excisional biopsy easily.

If the condition of lymphadenitis is mild, after a period of time, it will naturally get better; Or take some anti-inflammatory drugs in the ordinary sense, and take some anti-inflammatory injections, it will be fine. That's not a big deal. But if the swelling is severe, and it is not healed by long-term anti-inflammatory**, then traditional Chinese medicine is needed**

One is to avoid its further aggravation and deterioration, and the other is that the body needs to restore its function, exert its immune bactericidal effect, and enhance physical fitness.

It is treated with traditional Chinese medicine pills that dispel stasis and dissolve knots, detoxify and reduce swelling, and target pimples, lumps and inflammation. If you find the right one, it will not be difficult. Due to my work, the author is well aware of the charm of traditional Chinese medicine, and has witnessed a large number of typical cases of lymphadenitis and lymph node tuberculosis that have been treated by traditional Chinese medicine, which has verified the uniqueness of traditional Chinese medicine in the motherland.

Swollen lymph nodes on both sides of the neck After the throat inflammation last year, the neck was the size of a soybean grain The nodules in this physical examination became larger and I felt a foreign body Remotely connected to a Chinese medicine expert to ask the expert about the current situation.

Western medicine is some anti-inflammatory drugs, the general effect is not very good, the treatment of the symptoms can not cure the root cause, Chinese medicine ** is more reasonable, can regulate the body and mind, to achieve the effect of anti-inflammatory and swollen.

I guess you have chronic laryngitis.

or tonsillitis, canker sores, gingivitis. Causes submandibular lymphadenopathy to swell. If it is related to frequent colds, you must drink plenty of water. It is recommended that you definitely avoid spicy food. If there are no other abnormalities, or the reason cannot be found in the detailed examination, it can also be avoided. Observe for the time being.

Listen to the doctor, excision biopsy, now the lymph nodes are larger, you need to rule out the possibility of malignancy, in addition to whether there are other uncomfortable symptoms, you may also need to check the stomach, lungs and breast for lesions.

Swollen lymph nodes in the neck, for patients over the age of 35, are often a sign of metastasis.

Therefore, a biopsy must be done to rule it out, and if it is a metastasis, the primary tumor must be immediately searched for and surgery and postoperative chemotherapy.

Western medicine ** swollen lymph nodes are generally like this, it is difficult to heal, often causing suppuration inside, and then it will not work, only surgery or let it burst pus by itself, I don't know if you have a swollen neck now, if the swelling is very serious.

Analysis of the condition: from the following.

Symptom analysis: Lymphadenopathy caused by colds, some lymphadenopathy may be caused by viral infection, even if anti-inflammatory drugs are not very effectiveGuidance: In view of the yellow sputum, mostly caused by bacterial infection, it is recommended that intravenous drip anti-inflammatory**, drugs include anti-inflammatory drugs such as cephalosporins (used in the case of non-allergies), heat-clearing and detoxification drugs such as Qingkailing, and antiviral drugs such as Yan Huning intravenous drip.

**: Lymphatic tissue in the neck comes from lymphatic reflux in the nose, sinuses, pharynx, larynx, mouth, and face, where inflammation or cancer can invade or metastasize to the lymph nodes of various groups in the neck. Sometimes esophageal, chest and even gastrointestinal cancers have metastasized here. Generally, the nature and cause of cervical lymphadenopathy can be identified according to the location, size, texture, range of motion, and tenderness of cervical lymphadenopathy, and the possible primary lesion can be explored.

1. Lymphatic inflammation of the neck.

Acute patients have the characteristics of redness, pain, and heat, with rapid onset and local tenderness, and the lump subsides after anti-inflammatory. In chronic, the disease is long, active, nontender, and often located in the submandibular region.

2. Cervical lymph node tuberculosis.

It can be primary or secondary, tuberculosis foci in the abdominal cavity, the course of the disease is long, the enlarged lymph nodes are string-shaped, medium-quality, mobile, non-tender, can be adherent to each other into clumps, some caseous necrosis, and ulceration forms fistulas.

3. Cervical lymphoid malignant tumors.

It is one of the causes of cervical lymphadenopathy, and its primary focus is mostly located in the head and neck, and the mass is gradually enlarged, hard, poor in motion, and no tenderness, often one-sided, but also bilateral. Nasopharyngeal cancer, tonsil cancer, and laryngeal cancer often metastasize to supraclavicular lymph nodes, and nasal, sinus, mouth, and facial cancers often invade submandibular lymph nodes, esophagus, and metastasis to supraclavicular lymph nodes.

4. Cervical lymphatic malignant lymphoma.

It is a malignant tumor that occurs in the lymphatic reticular tissue. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is massive, progressively enlarged, hard, and poorly mobile, while Hodgkin's lymphoma is mostly bilateral, with fever, hepatosplenomegaly, emaciation and fatigue.

5. Cervical lymphatic AIDS.

It is caused by the invasion of human immunodeficiency virus, the course of the disease is long, and the lymph nodes gradually enlarge, often with inguinal lymphadenopathy, fever, emaciation, fatigue and leukopenia.

Through a detailed medical history, careful clinical examination, combined with imaging examinations, and strive to find the primary lesion, when the primary lesion can be found, through puncture or removal biopsy, the nature and cause can be clarified, and then the corresponding anti-inflammatory, anti-tuberculosis, surgical clearance or radiotherapy** can be carried out.

Hello bai, lymph nodes are hyperplasia or swollen due to internal cell growth.

Tumor cells infiltrate and the body volume increases. Lymphadenopathy is not common, can occur in people of any age, can be seen in a variety of diseases, there are benign, there are malignant, so pay attention to the cause of lymphadenopathy, timely medical treatment, diagnosis, so as not to misdiagnose, miss the diagnosis, you should pay attention. It is recommended that Western medicine** intervene in traditional Chinese medicine as soon as possible, which can double the curative effect, improve the body's immunity, and avoid**.
