It depends: Your lymph node is bigger than normal, but i need more history to know whether to be concerned. Is it on the right or left? Is it rubbery, tender, or rock hard? Do you have any other lymph nodes that are swollen? Have you had a chest x-ray in the last year? A supraclavicular node drains the lungs and the abdomen as well as part of the breast. Do you have other symptoms?
