A member asked:
Is it normal if a lymphoid swells before a period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymphnods: Lymphnods are part of our immune system and they react to inflammation, infection, and tumors to defend our body. There are locations (supraclavicular) where we should be concerned if we find lymphnods. The size also matter and the duration of the presence and the growth of the lymphnods all matter in defining a simple benign reaction from a serious problem.
