What should I do if the lymph nodes in the deep upper neck are swollen? 10

I'm in the same situation as you, I was caused by a cold, I had a small lump under my neck, I went to several hospitals, and the doctors said it was fine. Just let me go home and take some anti-inflammatory medicine. Seeing that it's been almost a month, and I haven't seen it yet, I feel anxious in my heart.

Later, I thought about it carefully, did I think too much? Why can't we think about the bright side? If we don't even trust the doctors, who else can we trust?

You don't need much to check, the main thing is your psychological problems, take it easy. You can do an ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) to check for blood and lymph node problems, not to suspect disease, mainly to use data to rule out your psychological problems.

We'll all be fine, let's relax.

It may be on fire, but it will naturally get better in a few days, don't always touch it and think about it.

Cervical lymphoid tissue comes from lymphatic drainage in the nose, sinuses, pharynx, larynx, mouth, and face, and inflammation or cancer in these areas can invade or metastasize to the lymph nodes of various groups in the neck. Sometimes esophageal, chest and even stomach and bowel 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.

Common causes are:

1) Inflammation. 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) Tuberculosis. It can be primary or secondary, tuberculosis foci in the abdominal cavity, the course of the disease is long, the swollen 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) Metastatic malignancy. 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) Malignant lymphatic hand tumors. It is a malignant tumor that develops late in 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) 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 Comrade Zhang Dianlong, the condition you provide is: 1. After rectal cancer surgery, 2. Liver metastasis and cervical lymph node metastasis are possible. Recommendations: 1 chemotherapy, 2 chemotherapy consolidation after liver metastasis intervention**.

Reply expert: Chief Physician Xie Yinfa, Department of Interventional Medicine, Shandong Provincial Institute of Cancer Prevention and Control.

Pathology of protorectal lesions? Is liver mass imaging confirmed as metastasis? Neck nodules can be biopsied to see if the new nodule is metastasized, which may affect the strategy.

Responding expert: Peking University Cancer Hospital - Colorectal Oncology Surgery - Attending Physician Wang Lin.

Did you have a check-up done in a tertiary hospital? In general, benign lymph nodes can also vary in size. The presence of lymph nodes is related to the presence or absence of surgery and the presence or absence of respiratory symptoms.

You can take medication for observation and then do an ultrasound after three months. You can also consult a general surgeon.

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. Staying up late, tiredness, anxiety and anger can also be caused.

In addition, 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. The distinction between common lymphatic diseases and lymphoma can also be distinguished from the length of time:

Lymphadenitis and lymph node tuberculosis can exist for many years, but the support time of lymphoma will not last long (the respectable and amiable Luo Jing, the country's top expert consultation**, from the onset of the disease to the death of only 10 months. )

Lymph node regularity: Wherever there is inflammation in the body, the adjacent lymph nodes will swell when they are defended and sterilized. After the inflammation is cured, the lymph nodes may not be better.

Lymph nodes, which are the immune system, are difficult to treat, and some chronic lymphadenitis can last for several years or more than ten years.

If the lymphadenopathy is mild, after a while, 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 the inflammation is not healed for a long time, then you need traditional Chinese medicine**:

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.

Lymphatic diseases seem to be a small disease, but so far the effects of drugs produced in hospitals and pharmaceutical factories have not been satisfactory. Chinese medicine can be fully considered. 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.

Hello, if you only have this one lymphadenopathy in your body, it may be caused by inflammation, it is recommended that you usually eat light food, drink more water, and it will disappear in a few days. You don't have to be too nervous, 90% of it is caused by inflammation, if you eat light and drink plenty of water in the past two days, and it is still swollen after two days, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up.

Ask if it will be cancer.

How long has it been swollen?

It's been a long time since I asked questions.

Is it a hard bump?

In this case, to find the primary site, if it is only a localized sarcoma, surgery is required to remove it completely. Sarcomas are all malignant, but not lymphoma, but they are not lymphomas, but sarcoma, and regular chemotherapy ** and local radiotherapy ** are recommended after surgery.

There have been cases of tonsil removal since childhood, but it is difficult to prove that there are research reports on sequelae. The human body is an ultra-precision instrument, and every part is useful, including the appendix that is often cut off, so try to make sure it is as intact as possible.

Are there any other physical discomforts? You may have inflammation in the body, infection, it will cause the swollen lymph nodes in the neck, it is recommended to take some anti-inflammatory drugs, such as roxithromycin.

Are there any other uncomfortable symptoms besides swollen lymph nodes in the neck?

For patients who are allergic to penicillin and streptomycin, erythromycin or metronidazole can be used**, which has a short cycle and quick effect.

Go to the surgery department for ultrasound. Confirm the cause of swollen lymph nodes first. in order to be symptomatic**.
