I was just wondering are all cancerous or mestatic lymph nodes hard to the touch .... thanks
Hi Bevdawn,
Some people have swollen lymph glands as a response to infection, instead of cancer. Have you been having problems with your nodes and have you seen anyone about this?
Kind regards,

No not with my nodes was just a question as I always thought cancerous nodes were hard not soft ... I'm.going to see about a swelling bottom of neck but think it's thyroid had it for 10 years but its grown lately its not hard tho
Hi Bevdawn,
It is always wise to get any swelling investigated. Instead od worrying about it and trying to self diagnose, please contact your GP, who will get this checked out for you. Here's hoping that it is just a thyroid problem, which can be easily managed.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on.
Kind regards,

I have had a swollen lymph node under my arm it was hard and sat there for ages my surgeon was aware of it . l had other breast problems and he eventually decided to remove it as it had enlarged and was sore the results were fortunately benign.
l hope everything goes well for you
take care
