swollen Lymph nodes?

Question

For the past 5 months I have been getting pimples on the bottom of my chin which cause my lymph nodes to swell. Its the only place Ive gotten a pimple. I went to the doctors like 3 months ago and they said its nothing to worry about but I was wondering if any one has had or heard something similar to what I have and what i should do?

Answer 1

First of all, most people jump to mono when they think of swollen lymph nodes. You stated you've had this problem for 5 months. I think you could safely rule out mono due to the amount of time you've had this condition. You haven't said anything about fatigue, sore throat, or any other ''classic" symptoms of mono. If it's been three months since your last doctor's appointment. I strongly encourage you to make another appointment and explain that there's been no resolution. It is likely to be something very benign but considering the time factor, see your doctor again. Best of luck to you. I hope everything turns out fine.

Answer 2

I do not think it is Mononucleosis - Read about this disease below--
Mononucleosis (mono), or glandular fever, is often called the kissing disease. The label is only partly true. The virus that causes this disease is transmitted through saliva, so kissing can spread the virus, but so can coughing, sneezing, or sharing a glass or food utensil. Mononucleosis isn't as contagious as some other infections, such as the common cold.

The cause of mononucleosis is the Epstein-Barr virus, although similar signs and symptoms are sometimes caused by cytomegalovirus (CMV). Full-blown mononucleosis is most common in adolescents and young adults.

Signs and symptoms of mononucleosis may include:

* Fatigue
* Weakness
* Sore throat, perhaps a strep throat that doesn't get better with antibiotics
* Fever
* Swollen lymph nodes in your neck and armpits
* Swollen tonsils
* Headache
* Skin rash
* Loss of appetite
* Soft, swollen spleen
* Night sweats

So, I suggest you to go to your physician once again and have compleate check up to evaluate and treat you. -
