2 Weeks ago I noticed a slightly swollen lymph node on the lower right side of my neck. It was soft and movable, didnt hurt and you couldn't see it, only feel it. I didn't worry about it much then, but felt it occasionally to make sure. It didn't change much in size for 5 days but then it started to get bigger for a few days, the skin near it felt hot, and it hurt a little at times. I then noticed two other ones on top and below the original one, and they were now visible if I tilted or turned my head to the left. They have grown little or none over the last few day and don't hurt, but still feel warm. I am scared that this is lymphoma. I don't think the lymph nodes are meant to feel soft or movable with lymphoma, but i'm still scared, because I do not have any symptoms of infection, other than a series of weird headaches and a slightly sore throat a few weeks ago. Any advice would be appreciated.
