A member asked:
Does 1.4 cm lymph node found in neck ultrasound means enlarged lymph node?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's not THAT big: "Enlarged" is a matter of opinion. Any why do you ask? Unless you feel obviously sick, or a lymph node in your neck is rock-hard, fixed to surronding structures that it shouldn't be, or oversized enough for everybody to notice, it's your friend. It's helping you stay healthy. Leave it alone and stop worrying. I'm had a 1.5 cm submental node since med school.

Had an ultrasound of my neck. The three lymph nodes were not enlarged, normal in size (all under 9mm) and displayed normal architecture however two of them displayed loss of fatty hilum. Does this mean malignancy?
