A member asked:
Went to docs he said that my lump is lymph node and to keep an eye on it and to come back if it became the size of a grape is that sensible advice?

Lymph node: We don't even know where the lymph node is and how quickly enlarged and if you have any other symtoms. In light of the fact that your doctor has your history and has examined you, I would defer to his judgement. If you have a reason to be worried, seek a second opinion.
