Hard to say: You would certainly want to be thoroughly evaluated. The lymph system is the filter system for the bloodstream and so systemic thing like infection can cause swollen nodes as you have described. If workup for infection is negative, a rheumatologist might be able to shed further light on the source. Thank you for your question.
