A member asked:

Got over my cold 2 weeks ago. cervical nodes still swollen&palpable no pain. doctor says not to worry. can it stay enlarged? when to worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Give it time: Lymph nodes can stay swollen for several weeks after an infection. Some infections can cause it to remain that way longer than others. If you start experiencing any new symptoms or if they continue to grow or don't start shrinking over the next few weeks you should see your Dr again. Try not to feel them too often as touching them can irritate the nodes.
