Hi. I'm 23 y/o, female. For the past 6 months, i've had swollen lymph nodes in axilla and inguinal area. Most of the swelling went away on it's own although it usually came back within weeks. Recently, I went to the doctor (got more swollen lymph nodes at the same spot for over a month) and had my blood drawn. The cbc came back normal, but esr is 74 mm/hr. I was told that it was quite high and was prescribed with antibiotics + painkillers. I am scheduled for another test next week to see if it still persists. I have no apparent infection, no fever / flu since the last 3 months. Should I be worried?
