4 month since exposure

would lymph nodes swell four months after exposure? I was dianosed with partitis and the antibiotcs made the lymph node swelling go away. then i woke up 3 days later and one of the lymph nodes behind the parotid glands was swollen, i went back to the dr. and he gave me more antibiotics even though i had no lymph node swellin at that time. after 4 days of taking second series of antibiotics i began to feel other lymph nodes swell in armpit. my exposuer is unprotected vaginal sex, could this be a symptom of ars? i havent had any other symptoms that i know of, thank you for ur time.

No it's not ARS. ARS if one has it at all happens a 2-4 post exposure and last 1-2 weeks. Test and it will be conclusive.
