knots behind right ear

[JennApril]

Hi, these are are my symptoms..  A knot popped up behind my right ear  about 3 weeks ago. About a week ago 4 little knots popped up around it... when this knot showed up I started getting bone deep chills, I can put extra clothes on and be warm on my skin but it feels like my insides are still chilled.... My head, chest, hands and legs started itching about a week after and still itch for no apparent reason. I am developing a cough but can not cough anything up.. and I stay tired all the time... could this be just a viral flu or do I need to have it checked out..

I think that's a good idea, especially if they are spreading into different regions.

Thank you for the comment... It's been 4 weeks now and I have more swollen lymph nodes popping up.. Guess its time to go see a Dr..

probably not flu but maybe some other virus. An immune reaction can release biochemicals that make you feel chills. If it goes on for much longer or gets worse you might get it checked.
