I've been to a gp about this and been told it's most likely a swollen gland and should go away in no time I just wanted to ask is it normal for it to not be painful but not be cancer thank you

Hi Mia,
How long have you had this problem for? Many people get swollen lymph nodes in response to a mild infection and some are of unknown cause. If you are still concerned, perhaps you should visit your GP again. There are tests that can be done to identify whether or not there is any cancer present and your GP can send you for these if s/he deems it necessary.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on.
We are always here for you.
Kind regards,

Hello thank you so much I had a blood test and today got my results which said my body is fighting an infection I'm so relieved as it makes sense to why I have lymph nodes
Hi Mia,
Thank you for getting back to me. I am delighted to hear that you have seen your GP and that your swollen lymph nodes seem to be due to an infection. If you are still unhappy once the infection has abated, don't hesitate to see your GP again.
We are always here for you.
Kind regards,
