Swollen lymph nodes for 9 months

It all started 9 months ago with swollen lymph nodes in neck. On the side I could feel two lymph nodes one under the other, one was bigger but both swollen. Had bloods done which showed high crp. Had a ultrasound done which said I had two swollen on the side of neck and one under my chin. Said reactive. But 9 months later they are still all swollen? Doctors won't do anything else because the scan said reactive but I haven't been able to stop worrying. the lymph nodes are hard and do not move at all, about the size of a small grape. Also can feel another lymph node just above my jawbone 

  • Hello Worriedsick2021

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with some ongoing concerns about reactive lymph nodes. It's understandable that you may still be feeling anxious about these changes. 

    The NHS website has some useful information about health anxiety along with some advice and tips for managing it. If things don't improve then do make an appointment to talk with your GP about how you're feeling and what support may be available to help you manage your worries. 

    I hope things improve for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
