Regular Member Reyes1 Posted October 21, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted October 21, 2016 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted October 21, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted October 21, 2016 I would think it's from the trauma given what you had done but I certainly would get a medical opinion.

Regular Member Michael Vories, MD Posted October 21, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted October 21, 2016 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.
