Stress/lymph nodes?: Stress did not cause the lymphnodes, but can cause poor sleep and thus tiredness etc... Small nodes around your neck, if the come and go etc..Then not likely to be serious--often viral illnesses do that. If they are persistent and enlarging in sizes, consult with your doc. In the meantime, stress relief, eat well, sleep well will make you feel better. Good luck.

Agree with Dr, N,: 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.
