A member asked:

What are the right blood tests needed for swollen lymph nodes?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Biopsy: If persistent lymph node enlargement, then biopsy the node. One could at least check a complete blood count. Hope this helps.

Need more info: A complete history, physical examination and review of available tests is needed for selection of tests, otherwise the list would be too long. See this site for info on this topic and discuss the matter with your doctor. http://www.aafp.org/afp/1998/1015/p1313.html.
