No - but in the armpit - I would suggest seeing your GP - medical professional to check them out.

Take care OK

Yes,for at least the last 3 years..very uncomfortable!! My GP blames post nasal drip and allergies,..I'm beginning to think different. It starts as soon as autumn does and does not subside to mid-spring, right along with the colder weather. We've switched my allergy meds five times,neti pot, vaporizer,you name it,I've probably tried it..nothing works! Hopefully my Rheumotologist can shed light on this..but can not see him until January. At this point, I'm really distraught, I'm 8 months pregnant and can only take tylenol.. in addition to all my other problems, a sore,swollen throat (&ears sometimes) daily is not what I need..

Yes, diagnosed polymyositis/scleraderma overlap and do often in winter when I'm struggling a bit. Wake up with swollen neck glands. I consider it one of my early warning signs & pace & plan a little more carefully. Hope this helps.
