Q: Swollen Cervical Glands
asked by: grtt on June 5th, 2006

Hello...

It's been about 2 months since I had a pharyngitis. My doctor prescribed me antibiotics (klaricid). After I finished taking it I had a swollen gland under my left jaw. I took two more packets of klaricid..This had as a result the gland to be back to normal but my left cervical glands have swollen.

It's been a month since I have swollen cervical glands, especially at the left side of my neck, which are sometimes painful. Antibiotics don't seem to help. I had no fever up to a couple days ago, however I do have a low fever the last couple of days. A cbc (blood) test is normal and mono test was negative too.

I went o see a doctor yesterday at a hospital, he said I had a chronic pharyngitis and a cervical lyphanedopathy but he suggested me to make an appointment for more exams.

However I am very worried. Any suggestions of what might be wrong?
