View allI've had small lymph nodes enlarged all over my body for almost 1.75 years near my ears, neck, under my jaw, armpits, and groin. The doctors at CMC Vellore checked my blood work and abdominal ultrasound, said everything's normal, and told me to come back only if the nodes grow bigger. But my armpit nodes keep hurting, and I can feel them constantly. I've seen multiple doctors in Kolkata, but no one has a solution. What should I do? The pain and the constant awareness of these nodes are really bothering me, and I also have a retracted eardrum. Could these be connected?
Given the persistent, unexplained swollen lymph nodes, persistent pain in the armpit nodes, and retracted eardrum, you should seek a second opinion from a specialist, possibly a hematologist or immunologist, to investigate further. A detailed assessment may be needed to determine the cause of your symptoms, including a thorough examination of your lymph nodes, a detailed history of your symptoms, and potentially additional testing like an MRI or a lymph node biopsy.

I'm a bit concerned because my blood test showed high lymphocytes, exactly 42.1. Should I be worried about any health issues down the line? What steps can I take now to make sure everything stays in check?
High lymphocytes in the blood can indicate an infection, inflammation, or a response to stress. To address this issue and prevent any potential health issues in the future, it is important to determine the underlying cause of the elevated lymphocytes. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and appropriate management. In the meantime, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) for any discomfort, and ensure you stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.
