A member asked:

Please tell me, could a vaginal infection cause swollen neck glands?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Enlarged lymph nodes in the neck do not generally occur with infections isolated to the genitourinary tract unless the infection had entered the bloodstream, in which case multiple areas would likely have enlarged lymph nodes.

Dr Kuitems and another doctor agreed
