Axilla lymph node swollen during infection. shrunk but did not return to normal size after infection. often feel numbness in my arm now after 1 year?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may not return: It may not return to normal size after the infection, but you need to be certain the infection is gone. Uncertain how the numbness fits in. was it numb during the infections. What type of infection is important also. You need to discuss this with your physician.
