Symptoms And Treatment Of Lymph Node Disease?




Hello doctor .. My name is sri I want to ask about lymph node disease. A week ago a lump in my left neck was quite painful, what if I move wrong it will hurt 2 days later I also grew a lump in the bottom and felt pain up to the head … Since that day on the 5th day I went to the nearest pharmacy he said I was affected by lymph nodes. I was only given anti-pain medication and told to avoid food that contains flavoring and coloring. My question is whether my disease is actually a lymph node or not? Indeed, I coughed for quite a long time. My dermatologist seemed to be dry and wrinkled so much discharge at that time! Please answer whether the symptoms are correct and how to treat them correctly, thank you
Hello Sri, thank you for asking.



  

There are many things that are mistaken in Indonesian society. People think that the 'lymph node' is the name or diagnosis of a disease. I straighten up a little yes, lymph nodes not the name or diagnosis of an illness. Lymph nodes are normal glandular structures that are found in humans. All humans have lymph nodes. So the analogy is, just like normal humans have ears, normal humans also have a gland called a lymph node. So, now that you have gotten the information, you can help straighten the misguided to your relatives and friends.



  

Lymph nodes play an important role in the human immune system. When a person experiences an infection or inflammation (inflammation), then the immune cells in the lymph nodes will experience activation, to overcome the infection and inflammation that occurs.



  

Lymph nodes are located in the neck, armpits, abdominal cavity, and groin. Lymph nodes can indeed be enlarged. Dapst enlargement occurs due to an infection process in another organ, or an infection process that attacks the lymph nodes themselves. Some possibilities that can cause enlarged lymph nodes are:







Lymphadenopathy. Generally occurs in people who are or are recovering from infectious diseases such as acute respiratory infections, inflammation of the throat, ear infections, or infections of the teeth and mouth area.  

Lymphadenitis.  

Glandular tuberculosis.  

Cysts or abscesses in lymph nodes.  

Tumors in lymph nodes.



In your case, it is also possible that enlarged lymph nodes are caused by a long cough. Handling will be more appropriate if it is directed at healing the cough that you experience. When the cause can be cured, then the lymph nodes should slowly shrink back to normal size by themselves.



  

If after a few weeks, there is no improvement in your lymph nodes, or even look worse, contact your doctor immediately. Symptoms of worsening can be in the form of a rapid increase in the size of lymph nodes, increased pain, redness, high denam, and uneven palpable glands when held. Doctors need to make sure by examination directly, whether the structure in your neck is indeed enlarged lymph nodes, or there is another abnormality. At this time you do not need to take special action on your lymph nodes. Keep your nutrition in order to remain optimal, multiply eating vegetables, fruits, and protein. Don't massage the lymph glands because they can make the disorder worse.



  

Hope this answer helps yes. Regards
in general, pain in lymph nodes is usually a sign of an infectious process. if it doesn't go away, you should go see your doctor so he/she can examine you. see more... if the nodes are swollen and painful, get seen to rule, out any serious illnesses like lymphadenitis. i personally do not believe in the concept of chronic lyme disease. you may want to consult with an infectious disease specialist or a rheumatologist. see more... swelling is one of the symptoms of superficial phlebitis. the area is often very tender to touch, warm and red. it is best to have the acute inflammation treated and then explore your options for definitive treatment. see more... Lump during childhood may be early development of breast.
  
Lump during adolescent also may be development of breast tissue or benign mass as fibroadenoma (not cancer)
  
Lump during adult may be fibroadenosis (i.e., milk gland overgrowth but still not cancer) or malignant growth (it is cancer, mostly developed in single female or married with no child or child birth without breastfeeding).
  
So, if you worry about lump developed, please consult to your family doctor changes are certainly possible, but if you feel a hard lump, or if you are uncertain of the significance of what you are feeling, you should see your doctor for an evaluation to make sure. see more... hi rowdy-i'm glad you found my answer helpful. the fatigue i had was unreal as well as joint pain. my doctor kept telling me it was related to the crohn's, but i knew it was something else. i had severe symptoms for about 3 months. i went to a dermatologist for a skin rash and he said we shouldn't assume everything was related to the crohn's and did an ana panel. my numbers were outrageously high, and was diagnosed with drug induced lupus. the doctor said i'll have the symptoms for about 3 months before all of the antibodies are out of my body. td, i’m not sure exactly what it is. it sounds like it might be lipomas, but it’s difficult to say without being able to examine you. if they are lipomas, the only way to remove them will be surgery. the best would be to see your doctor and have a proper diagnosis made. good luck. you could see a dermatologist, dentist, or oral surgeon. could be a canker sore (apthous ulcer) or herpes. topical lidocaine, or a mixtire of benadryl, (diphenhydramine) maalox, and lidocaine helps. stay away from citrus, or spicy foods. see more... throat pain can be from a strep infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (to check for strep). severe vomiting or severe diarrhea means a trip to the doctor, regardless of other symptoms. see more...
