You are only 18, and I'll bet you dont have cancer, however, worrying about it is not helping you and I strongly suggest that you go and see your doctor and ask him what's going on. You will feel so much better.

You could watch and wait. It is unlikely to be cancer. 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!
