Hi Im a 56 year old female who was injured in a serious automobile accident on 4/2/2004.  When my truck rolled thr airbag deployed in my chest, and seatbelt cut me across my chest.  7 years later i have a damaged Lymph node system.  I have 2 lumps with abnormal cells present after a needle biopsy.   I have had lymph node infections since this accident.  Are abnormal cells cancer cells,  do they  have the potential to become cancer. Thank you.
It is not necessary that after a trauma the lymph node cells convert into cancer cells.However repeated infections are common after any trauma or surgery a final diagnosis on to what kind of cells are there in your lamp. Node I would advise you to take an appointment and get a fine needle biopsy of the affected lymph node. That will clear everything and your future treatment can be planned accordingly
