Question 1

the lymph nodes on the back of my neck seem to swell and hurt when my allergies flare up. could allergies cause this and how can i relieve it?

Accepted Answer

Inflammation: Lymph nodes react to inflammation at times by swelling and tenderness. As long as they recede this is a benign situation. It's probable that inflammation of the nose and throat during allergic reactions are causing this in your case. Avoiding  specific allergens and  taking antihistamines, decongestants and tylenol (acetaminophen) may help.

See doctor: Although your symptoms are suggestive of a sinus infection, it is unusual to have neck pain associated with it. You need to see a doctor.

Question 4

after i take one drink of any type of alcohol i get pain in the back of my neck. is this as allergy to alcohol or could it be something else?

Accepted Answer

Have it checked out.: Have it checked out. Neck pain with alcohol consumption raises one potential concern which would be a certain type of lymphoma (usually one that responds very well to treatment). That being said, this is really very rare, but regardless would recommend you see your doctor about it.

Question 5

can allergy to shampoo affect lymph nodes on the back of the neck?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Allergy to shampoo is of the contact type, and will therefore affect the skin long before it affects the lymph nodes. If you don't have a significant rash all over your scalp (the areas that come into contact with the shampoo), the swollen lymph nodes are probably not related to the shampoo.

Question 6

Sometimes: nodes swelling response to inflammation (not just infection). Take care.
