A member asked:
Swollen axillary lymphnode for 3 months about 2.5cm. not growing, painful and moves, smooth edges, all normal blood work. should i leave it or biopsy
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymph node: Sounds like this would be safe to continue to monitor. Sounds like this is a reactive lymph node. Especially if the node is painful.
