A member asked:

I have swollen glands on the front of my left neck from eczema. i also noticed small tiny moving lumps behind my left neck. are these related?

Maybe not: Swollen glands, especially in the anterior triangle of the neck in the region of the jugular vein are considered indicative of some sort of pathology, usually not arising from eczema. If they are firm and have increased in number and extending to the posterior triangle of the neck, biopsy should be performed.
