Lymph nodes hardened after biopsy

2018-09-02 12:34:00
Hello, my mother had ovarian cancer, had surgery ( full removal) and had chemotherapy a year ago. Recently her lymph nodes around her neck were swollen and her ca125 marker went up to 46. We did a biopsy for it a week ago. And the nodes have hardened since then. Is it because of the biopsy?
