A member asked:
Are these black-eyed pea sized neck lymph nodes a cause for concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Lymph nodes often enlarge due to inflammation. A sore throat can enlarge them as they do their job, but that should resolve. Persistence of neck nodes a month or more after an infection clears or in the abscence of an infection raises concern and should be evaluated by your doc.
