A member asked:

I'm really concerned about swollen lymph nodes, what kind of doc specializes in this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lots of doctors: A good family doc or internal medicine doc could certainly help. If the swollen glands are by your neck, an ENT would help. If you need a biopsy, a general surgeon could fill the bill

Dr Lessnau and another doctor agreed
