What to Do About a Growing Lymph Node in Your Neck

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr.Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

It’s important to address your concern about a growing lymph node. Swollen lymph nodes can occur due to infections, inflammation, or other medical conditions. Given the duration and growth, consulting a healthcare provider is essential. Considering your family history of breast cancer, though rare in males, it’s crucial to investigate thoroughly. Your doctor may recommend tests like cytology or a biopsy to identify the cause. Please consult a medical professional promptly to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.

Thanks
