Lymph nodes

[Kurtzycorn]

I am wondering what may be wrong with me. I have had infections o
In the past because I am a wrestler and recently around February I got a staph infection where I went to my doctor and got treated. During that my lymph nodes in my groin swelled and I'm not positive but maybe elsewhere. When I went in to get treated my doctor said they should go down after a while. They never did but they never gained any size and maybe lessened a little bit. I also have a swollen lymph node under my chin and I think both sides of my neck. None have increased from when I first noticed them and they aren't overly large at all. They move and have no hardness to them. I also have not had any other symptoms lately that are irregular just the lymph nodes and I am concerned.

Hi, as you know it's the normal job of lymph nodes to swell to fight an infection as immune cells multiply inside. They should go down, but might not if scarring (aka fibrosis) builds up inside. Or you might be getting reinfected. But there's no reason to think it is lymphoma, unless they get very large. Lymphoma would be among the least likely causes of your symptoms, I wouldn't worry about lymphoma from what you are experiencing..
