A member asked:
I have had an enlarged lymph node for over 6 months and i feel normal and dont have any other symptoms. am i likely to have cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cannot know: A single enlarged lymph node does not immediately mean you are likely to have cancer. It bodes well that you do to have other symptoms. Please plan to see your primary care provider for work up and physical exam. Be well.
