I have swollen lymph nodes under my arm for the last 6 months. They appear some days and disappear on other days. They are painful. Doctors gave me some pills, but there was no response. I took a blood report, but everything is normal. The lymph nodes can be felt but not seen.

Persistent node greater than 6 weeks needs evaluation. Could be reactive or something else. Biopsy may be needed if labs normal.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a CBC+ESR Test

I recently received my routine checkup report, but since I am not from a medical background, I tried to look up the meaning of the tests online to see if everything is normal. However, I am still unsure. My results are Hemoglobin: 17.3 (High) RBC count: 5.9 (High) Hematocrit: 54.2 (High) Absolute Basophil Count: 00 (Low) MPV: 11.6 (High) Total Cholesterol Ratio: 2.64 (Low) BUN: 8.61 (Low) Could you please explain what these results mean? Are they within normal limits, or is there any cause for concern?

I recently got tested for a pap smear and my report is negative, but I am having endocervicitis, inflammation, and mild pain. Is it okay to do exercise and yoga while having cervicitis? Or should I avoid workouts?
