A member asked:

Hi. is it possible for a lymph node to swell in my neck? its about half way between my ear and clavicle

A doctor has provided 1 answer

We all have nodes: Whether or not a lymph node is called swollen depends on the size of the node and the average size of nodes in that part of the body, in people of that age group. A node about the diameter of a dime may be called enlarged, and one that is half the width of a dime is called normal sized. An in-person evaluation by one's primary care doctor can help decide whether or not there exists a problem.
