A member asked:

A couple less than 1cm soft mobile lymph nodes in neck. been there for months.doc ordered ultrasound . does this sound like lymphoma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Let your doctor evaluate and advise. You may feel the nodes every couple of weeks, if any of the the lymph glands doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, or lose weight, you should see a doctor.
