Swollen lymph nodes in neck and underarm for more than a year

[HealthNut89]

I'm female and 25 years old. I've had about six lymph nodes swollen at the sides of my neck (3 on each side) for over a year now, and under my underarms.I've been to the doctor, and he did blood tests which showed my
lymphocytes were in the normal range.I also had a few lymphathic  drainage massages, and a colon hydrotherapy done which took away the swollen nodes under my arms, and reduced the swelling of the
ones on my neck area. Before I went for the massages and the colon hydrotherapy, I experienced chronic fatigue, and after I did these procedures, my fatigue went away, and I have more energy now. The colon cleanse showed I had pin worms.  However, it's been two months after the massage and the colon hydrotherapy, and the
swollen lymph nodes by my neck are still here. I feel one by each under arm near the breast area  But I don't have chronic fatigue any more. I'm a full-time university student and married, so often times, I'm under a lot of stress to balance my time and priorities.I'm trying to figure out why they are still swollen. Is it because of the amount of stress my body is experiencing,and or a combination of having parasites, or is it something else?

I had the nodes checked out with ultrasounds done  on my neck, chest and underarms. They were normal in size. It's been a few months after that check up. Turns out my stress level was causing them to become swollen. I'm fine now.

IAfter more than a few weeks of persistent node swelling, it's probably a good idea to have them checked out again by your doctor.  I'm not saying you have cancer, but it is possible to have normal blood tests and still have a blood cancer.  It is also possible to have residual swollen nodes from previous infections, almost like scar tissue that builds up in the node and doesn't go all the way back down.

I don't know much about colon hydrotherapy or how they were able to test your feces for pin worms, but that alone would prompt me to see a doctor right away.  I'm not sure if that could cause your lymph nodes to swell (maybe from inflammation), but if you have parasites you will probably need treatment for it right away.
