Could The Swollen Lymph Node On Collar Bone Be Related To The Removal Of Planters Warts?

Hello. My nineteen year old daughter has a small grape sized lymph node right under her collar bone between her neck and shoulder. she is very healthy no other symptoms but had her wisdom teeth out 3 weeks ago and had the gardisil vaccine and 3 planters warts removed 2 weeks ago today. The swollen node is smooth, firm and about 1.5 cm. could this possibly due to the fact that there are so many things the nodes may be fighting off? We do have a Dr. Appt tomorrow, but the location of the swollen node worries me. I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you!

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms of your daughter seem to be related
to a reactive lymph nodes.
They are usually enlarged in case of an infection in the system.
In such a case they are benign and don't require any treatment.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
