A member asked:
Neck ultrasound showed 16.5 mm x 6.5 mm lymph node in posterior (lower right back) of the neck. it said it was inflammatory. what are the chances that it could be malignant (lymphoma)? no lymphoma b symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Watch and wait: You may feel the node every couple of weeks, if the lymph gland 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!
