No painful but Moveable

[Vmp]

I have two lymph nodes swollen on my left side of my neck ... One is larger than the other - they are both movable but they do not hurt at all. It has been there for 8 weeks. The location istoqarda the back of the neck near the back hair line. They are not visible

I do have a dry scalp on the left side and a cracked wisdom tooth. But I haven't felt sick

I do not feel tired but I think I am Losing weight - i still have an appatiete tho , no fever or dreaching night sweats I am freaking out-

Could this be cancer

I have a docotora appointment tomorrow

Up date


Went to my OB/gyn yesterday, because I don't have a GP - he said he doesn't think it's anything  to worry about and since it's close to my Hairline he thinks its from my scalp. He said if he gets bigger or my psorisas gets worst to go to a dermatologist .

Thank you for the advice

Yes Ken- you did mention tooth pain before-
Thank you so much for taking your time out ad answering my panic questions! I really appreciate your knowledge!

Hi, tomorrow your doctor will most likely say that it's nothing to worry about, but to keep an eye on the area to see if there are any big changes.

The reason why movable nodes are said to be not cancer is this: a cancerous node will start to grow into the surrounding tissue. It will in effect be part of the surrounding tissue. But a normal node, even though it's swollen, is a separate entity and so it's not fixed in place.

And a node that's swollen from infection doesn't have to be painful. We talked about the tooth thing before, right?

Good luck tomorrow, though you won't need it :)
