A member asked:
If a lymph node( about 0.7 cm) doesn't become bigger in size for 1 year is that mean it is not lymphoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why worry about it?: Lymph nodes are normally present in all of us. Unless a node is growing in size and grows bigger than one centimeter, it is considered normal. Simply stop checking it unless it is painful or getting bigger on a once monthly check that you can do yourself.
