Hello everyone! I’m new to this forum. I’ve suffered from extreme health anxiety my entire life. Two years ago I noticed a painful, swollen and a bit stiff of a lymph node right below my ear. I had it checked out but no one was concerned. The pain eventually stopped but I still notice a small amount of tenderness from time to time if I touch it. Since then I’ve noticed a couple times where I’ve felt different painful lymph nodes in my neck but they’ve never really been swollen and the pain goes away. Yesterday I noticed pain in the front of my neck, almost under my chin but a bit lower. It kind of feels like a lymph node but I can’t even really tell because there doesn’t seem to be swelling. All I know it that it’s tender and hurts worse if I mess with it. I just made such a fit about painful lymph nodes when this happened two years ago and other than this I feel completely fine. Any advice on why I always have these random lymph node pains? Keep in mind I don’t have a cold or any sort of viral infection that I’m aware of. Thank you!

Do you have a diagnosis of CLL?
If you are always probing your neck, you could be irritating the nodes. Nodes swell and retract normally all the time as part of a normal and HEALTHY immune system. Try not to worry too much about it. If you are overly concerned. ask your doctor if he/she thinks an ultrasound would be warranted in your case.
