Need doctor's help! will lymph node infection go into ear and gums?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
+lymphnode=pathology: Usually infections spread from a source to the lymphnode. Lymphnodes are like the hazardous waste system for your body. They hold bacteria, viruses and foreign matter for processing by your immune system to handle. If the infection is overwhelming then is can spread. See you doctor for a proper examination, diagnosis and treatment options.
