Swollen lymph nodes

I've been having trouble with swollen lymph nodes in my groin since the 4th May this year, I've had multiple blood tests that show levels of infection but I've had swabs done come back clear, I've had 2 ultrasounds external and internal but they come back fine we are now September and ones up again I'm so stressed out over it because it's been every other month so started in May, June I was fine, July back up and the start of August but ended around the 7th August and now been up for 3 days I've had enough now I just want to know what's causing this to happen

  • Hello and thank you for your post,

    I am sorry to hear about your concern. I am afraid we are not able to say what is the matter (if there is anything at all the matter) but you should go back to your GP to let them know that this happens.  Lymph nodes can go up and down in response to infection (bacterial or viral) and sometimes we might not know we actually have an infection.

    You should be reassured that so far no test or investigation has shown anything worrying. But do contact your GP if you are concerned to be on the safe side. 

    Take care,

    Caroline
