Relax a bit: Remember it may take 3-4 weeks for reactive lymph nodes, as in nodes that may be painful and/or enlarged to go back to "normal" after an initial insult - in most cases some sort of infection. So before you get overly anxious, give it more time. And please try to stop manipulating the node.

Normal: since it has decreased in size and 2 doctors have said it is normal stop worrying about it and address your anxiety.
