A member asked:
I have a level 5 enlarged lymph node thats been there for a few years. ct scan showed that its 0.9 mm in short axis and resembles reactive lymph nodes configuration. could benign looking lymph nodes be malignant? thanks. (ultrasound = 2.4 x 0.7 cm)

Watch and wait: You may feel the nodes every couple of weeks, if any of 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. Wish you good health!
