A member asked:
Will the lymph nodes in your collarbone swell during an upper respiratory infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes it can, but if the swelling persists for a week or two after the infection is gone, then you need to visit your doctor to be sure it is not a sign of something serious.
