Swollen lymph nodes.

I had a bad cough about 2 months ago. I have noticed swollen lymph nodes on my neck. Could this be a throat infection or HIV related. I had a condom break about 4 months ago. I dont know if she is clean or not. I took a hiv test about 2 months ago do I need to take another? PLease help me I cant go through my day just thinking about this. Thank you in advance.

I have also noticed a little red mark inside my lip. They look really small a little bigger than pin pricks. I had a gay experience about 6 weeks ago and I used a condom. I was really drunk at the time dont remember the condom breaking. Im pretty sure it did not.  So do the little marks inside my lip mean anything. I have not had a fever in over 2 years I think. I have heard that fever is the biggest symptoms of hiv, is that true?I will take another test tomorrow is 6 weeks a good time to take it again? Any help or info on this will be deeply appreciated. Thanks guys. God bless.

You tested four months after your condom failure, your negative result is conclusive.

You tested negative at the 8th week after your exposure ?

if thats what it's : you don't have it

you could retest at the 12th week for your peace of mind but it's very unlikely that your result would change .

Sorry, I forgot to add that I also have a strange feeling in my ears. They feel swollen as if connected to the lymph nodes under my chin.  Thank you, any info will be helpful.
