swollen lymph node. you have them all over your body.

Does it squish and move under the skin a bit if you press gently on it? Sounds like an infection

Nah just that one spot




Nah it doesn't move

it is a swollen lymph node.

you have lymph nodes all over your body

I didn't put a ? at the end for a reason.

you're welcome, I saved you a trip to the doctor and you can stop freaking out. Your doctor is going to diagnose you as a hypochondriac before long.

Go get it checked. Do you smoke or chew tobacco?

Also how old?

it's not a toomah.. at all..

23 and I don't smoke ciggs

Just weed? No chew? can you estimate it's size? Jelly bean, marble? Ping pong ball?

Grab the scissors and be a man.

i just had this issue last winter myself. It will either be a swollen lymph node or an infected sebacious gland. Either way the cure is to wait it out and try to melt it/dissolve it with heat + antibiotic, or to get it cut open/drained by a doctor. I'd opt for the 2nd option if it's already that bad, chances are the first won't work.
