A member asked:

I have swollen lymph nodes! help me!?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Go see a doctor: You need to get a medical exam done in order to find the cause of swollen nodes. Unless it is an infection, you may need a biopsy of the lymph nodes if they are more than one cm in size and getting bigger over time.
