A member asked:
A very enlarged lymph node on neck was removed but was not cancerous now another one has appeared next to it what could cause this ?

See prior biopsy...: Probably related to the same reason the first node was enlarged. Would have to see biopsy of that first node. You should talk to your doc.

Agree with Dr. F: You and your doctor should talk to the pathologist who examined the lymph node that was removed.
