If you haven't developed regular fevers and weight loss along with lymphadenopathy there is nothing to worry about. Some times lymph nodes enlarge after mild infections. I would advise you to go for biopsy if the size increases or you start having regular fever or you start loosing weight without any obvious cause.

Is it just lymph nodes. What other symptoms you have. If there is significant history then only we can decide. If you don't have any active symptoms then no need for biopsy.

Hi, don't know if this is the right place to look for help, but I am out of options, basically I have struggled with my stomach and intestines since october 2018, at first it was just a mild fever, burning in stomach, and a few bad bowel habits, but then my bowels became much worse over time, had bouts of diarrhea, constant abdominal tenderness and cramps, and obviously gas, I did all kinds if tests, blood, colonoscopy, endoscopy, ct scan of both abdomen and chest, mri enterography, and nothing showed apart from enlarged lymph nodes, so I went to a hematologist she said that does are reactive and non specific small nodes, and 2 weeks ago I went to a doctor who specialises in infections she ordered a feces test on gut bacteria and came back this e.coli h7 dna, she said that this type of bacteria can cause all these symptoms and lymph nodes but you don't treat it, usually it goes away on it's own, asked what to do next, she said this is probably the thing that causes everything, and just try diets and probiotics for the next 2 months, but it's been 1 year and 6 months, is it possible for bacteria to sit inside me for that long, and cause all these symptoms for so long and won't go away? I just highly doubt it.
