A member asked:

Is a slightly swollen right neck lymph node commonly caused by lymphoma? accompanied by mild sore throat, no fever. quite anxious about health stuff.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Time will tell: If the lymph node grows in a short period (three weeks), it is suspicious of lymphoma. If it stay the same, look for chronic irritation or infection in the ear canal, lobe or temporal scalp.
