My axillary(underarm) and cervical(side of neck) lymph nodes are swollen on just the left side they are really sore and tender. It hurts to move my arm around and rotate it. I'm not feeling really bad. I have somewhat of a stuffy nose but no sore throat or anything else....This is been hurting since this morning. Any reasons why they would swell like that and only on the one side?

Also I've had a horrid headache all day.
But that's not too uncommon I get bad headaches every so often. I'm on inderal for that.

Sweetie, i recommend that you see your doctor asap. I cannot diagnose you nor can he without an examination but it is possible that you are experiencing a strep throat and, if not, you definitely have some infectious process going on due to the swollen lymph nodes. A strep throat can often cause swollen lymph nodes (and they can occur on just one side), a headache and cold like symptoms without making you feel really horrible until it has gotten severe. Please see your doctor asap.

Masturbation of that frequency is absolutely, perfectly normal and would have NOTHING to do with your lymph issue. If you've never had sex you couldn't possibly have any STDs that would affect your lymph nodes. There may be a problem with the lymph duct being clogged or something in the gland if it is swollen. I would give it a few more days and if it doesn't noticeably go down see a doc. You can take some Ibuprofen for swelling and pain, probably 400mg for someone your size and weight.
