Lymphnode ARS clarification

So: for ARS and lymphnodes

They would not hurt? To the touch or just normally?

How big would they get?

Would all lymphnodes swell around the same time, or could they swell one by one, as one swelling goes down, another node in another areas swells up?

And how long would the swelling last all together? Just as long as the other ARS symtoms (symptoms)?

Hi there,

The first symptoms of HIV infection, sometimes called acute HIV infection or primary HIV infection, occur about 1 to 4 weeks after the virus was transmitted.

Acute HIV infection can last from one to three weeks.

For ARS, the nodes do not swell "1 up, 1 down"......they swell together......

Thank you so much for the imput so far.

Does anyone know if they hurt or not. I saw before that they do not hurt, But does that also mean they would not be tender to the touch?

whether is ARS swollen nodes or general infection swollen nodes, they are usually tender to touch, "poke" and "squezee" it harder....of course, will be painful.  

Cheers!

You can always feel your lymphnodes especially in your neck . They are always there ..If they were swollen you would know it , I am sure everyone would . . The more you poke bigger they get

Yeah, but i have had 4 lymph nodes swell up recently. But they seem to not have all come on at once, and have come on more gradually. they were however at one point all swollen at the same time. One in neck, one under armpit one above belly button, and one in inner upper thigh. They arent all tender anymore except the thigh one, but they are still bigger than they were originally.

Oh and also i have a swollen tender red, Sublingual gland right under my tounge. Could these be related to ARS in anyway?
