What Causes Swollen Lymph Nodes In Neck And Groin While Suffering From Cirrhosis?
I have battled swollen lymph nodes for the past 3 years. Had several rounds of antibiotics and steroids etc.. Lymph nodes stayed swollen and tender.. They go down, come up. Mostly the neck area and have been under arms and groin too. No docs seem concerned about this at this point to which I dont understand.. I have Hepatospleenomegaly, NAFLD with Cirrhosis. Today I had an itch to scratch at the base of my hairline on the back of my neck , basically the base of my skull. I discovered a Lymph node that has swollen that has never swollen before, it is hard, fixed, and does not hurt at all to touch it or press on it.. Unlike all the other lymph nodes that have always been very painful. I did not even know this one was there until today.. Any thoughts?
