Multiple swollen lymph nodes is one of the symptom of lymphoma. But, all swollen lymph nodes are not lymphoma.If they are of same size since four years, usually it may not be lymphoma.
We have to examine clinically and do some tests to rule out what it is..
If you r having some other symptoms like fever,weight loss and loss of appetite, please consult a oncology doctor to rule out lymphoma.
Next Steps
visit the general physician or an ENT specialist to rule out what it is.
Health Tips
frequent itching and mucous in the throat can be due to allergy..
