Anyone ever had Lymph nodes (gland) swell recently after HT

Hello everyone,

 

So I tried searching this topic on the forum and was unsuccessful and figured why not start a new thread. I recently had an HT, and everything is going great. Last night I noticed my lymph node, behind my ear, right side of my neck is a bit swollen. This morning, it seemed to be a bit red. I know I should consult a doctor, but I was wondering if anyone has experienced or read of someone with a similar scenario due to the trauma one receives from the HT.

 

I read that it can be common after a cut or injury for "a" Lymph node to swell up near the area of the cut or what not, but maybe someone has a bit more insight. I feel fine, but attached photos (looks a bit more swollen in person) to help understand my question. Thanks in advance!

I would think it's from the trauma given what you had done but I certainly would get a medical opinion.

 

Not to worry. We see this often post-op, it is just due to drainage of fluid from anesthesia and inflammation from the procedure. As long as you are not running a fever, everything should be ok.

 

Yep, figured that much, I feel fine. No fever at all. Thank you for the prompt input!

As others have mentioned this is normal as long as it goes away in a few days.

go dense or go home

I know this is an old post, but did your lymph node issues resolve? I’m at 2 weeks now and experiencing the same issue.
