A member asked:
Pos cerv node swollen for a month pea sized mobile, 2 rounds of antibiotics, prednisone, doc not concerned, how long is time to be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cervical node: If it is pea sized and mobile it sounds like a safe lymph node. Worrisome lymph nodes are generally larger; about an inch and are not mobile and often there are more than 1. Continue to follow up with your doctor and if it changes; consider a biopsy. All the best.
