Cancer can appear in the lymph nodes in 2 ways: it can either start there or it can spread there from somewhere else.
Cancer that starts in the lymph nodes is called lymphoma but more often, cancer starts somewhere else and then spreads to lymph nodes.
More cancer in the nodes may mean that the cancer is fast growing and/or more likely to spread to other places in the body.
You may need to have a detailed discussion for further consultation.

The glands (lymph nodes) on either side of the neck, under the jaw, or behind the ears commonly swell when you have a cold or sore throat. More serious infections may cause the glands to enlarge and become very firm and tender. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.
