A member asked:

Several tender swollen lymph nodes in neck for 6 weeks each side. blood test normal. intense hip pain and knee pain. is the joint pain related?

Possible: 6 weeks of swelling of lymph glands is not the normal thing to occur. This needs to be re evaluated. At the same time the hip and knee pain can be addressed Make your apt with your health care provider in the next week if possible.

Joint pain: 6 weeks is a lot,swollen lymph nodes are alert,maybe you have infection in your bone which causes your lymph to become swollen,I suggest going to doctor to check for lymph nodes under armpits and any other enlarged lymph nodes,Biopsy might be taken from lymph nodes to check for any cancerous cells and to see the reason for swollen,the doctor might give you antibiotic.
