Swallow lymph nodes
Hello sir
Actually there is a pea sized swallowing in my right side neck about 20 days. I told this to my cghs doc. He told this is only a lymph node nothing else. But I am not satisfied with this. Should I consult it to another doc. Please reply me.
Thanks

You seem to be having enlargement of cervical lymph nodes. Usually lymph nodes get enlarged secondary to infections in head and neck region. Unless this is painful or progressively increasing in size you need not worry much. If you want confirmation then undergo a ultrasound scan of the neck
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
