A member asked:
Thought i felt a lymph node on collarbone after multiple bug bites. have seen 2 doctors and both say no lymph node just vein and soft tissue. i might push for an ultrasound for my own peace of mind. what might i be feeling that they arent?

Lymph node quest: You haven't provided specific enough information about location to be able to even profer a guess. I have included a site that has a great photo demonstrating nodes in that area. See" https://meded.ucsd.edu/clinicalmed/head.html. Don't be surprised if your demands for ultrasound are not met. Even if you had some adenopathy if would be likely be explained by bug bites.
