Monitor, don't worry: If the lymph nodes have not changed in 18 months, you have not had undesired weight loss, night sweats, fevers, or increase in size, the odds of a pathologic condition is very low. If you still cannot stop worrying, it can be biopsied, but why get a scar for such a low risk lesion. Only address if it changes
