Swelling in fore head instantly
Within 1.5 month i found swelling in my forehead near hairline twice. The swelling reduced to normal within 24 hours in both the cases. I wonder if that is related to lymph nodes causing lymphoma. I am very worried, kindly let me know if there are any tests to rule out the possibility of lymphoma.
FYI : I had alopecia areata - autoimmune disorder in 4 months back.

Sudden increase and decrease of size of lesion is unlikely for any lymphoma .
I would like to see this over consult to under exactly which part of forehead you are mentioning. Because lymph nodes usually come at location they naturally exist.
