Swollen node in neck for 6 months. soft and 1cm. ultrasound showed normal reactive node. off and on cold symptoms for a month now. leukemia possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: From what you described, leukemia is highly unlikely. You may feel the node every couple of weeks, if the lymph gland doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, or lose weight, you should see a doctor.
