Why are my chest lymphocytes swelling?

Chest lymphocytes swelling

1 Answer

Answered on 28th Jan '25

Swelling in lymph nodes within the chest can arise from various factors, including infections, inflammation, or occasionally more serious conditions. Common accompanying symptoms may include coughing, pain, or fever. It’s essential to monitor any ongoing issues, such as persistent swelling or discomfort. Starting with rest, hydration, and over-the-counter pain relievers can be beneficial. However, I recommend consulting a hematologist for a thorough evaluation and tailored guidance, ensuring your health is prioritized.

Male | 28

You are experiencing a hard time caused by that fever and high CRP level. Night sweats are one way for your body to show that it is fighting an infection. A high CRP may be a sign of inflammation in your body. Your doctor prescribing you fever medicines and painkillers is the correct way. Do not forget to rest properly, drink plenty of fluids, and listen to your doctor's orders.

Female | 29

An ESR reading of 50 might mean there is some kind of inflammation in the body. Possible infections, autoimmune diseases, or even a few cancers can be the cause of this. Typical symptoms of inflammation include fever, fatigue, and aching of the body. To handle this, it is necessary to identify the main reason by doing other tests and talking to a doctor.

I had unprotected sex last in 2022, I did a hiv test last year October 2023 and tested negative,I wasn't exposed to any sexual activities,do I need to get tested again ?

Female | 26

If you had unprotected intimate relations in 2022 and your HIV test was negative in October 2023. You are not required to take another test as long as you haven't been risky since then. HIV symptoms sometimes show up late, so if you feel something out of the blue, like inexplicable weight loss or too many infections, then it's good to get tested again.

I'm a 20 year old male, with one swollen groin lymph node or so it feels that I've discovered about a month and a half ago, it was tender for about the first week but isn't anymore

Male | 20

When you have infections, the lymph nodes in your groin tend to swell up. It could be that there is a simple infection or in some rare cases, something more serious. Since it is now more than a month and there is no pain, this shows positive progress. It would be wise however to see a doctor if they do not go away or you experience any other symptoms.

38 year old male blood test result: high mchc and lymphocytes, low hematocrit and neutrophils. Low vitamin d. Patients brother had aml. Are these test results concerning? Should we do further testing? The reason for the blood test was bone pain on different parts on the body. Lymphocyes 52% Mchc 37 Neutrophils 38% Hematocrit 38.9% Vit d 16

Male | 38

The increase of MCHC and lymphocytes along with the fall of hematocrit and neutrophils is a sign of some serious issues beneath. Bone pain can also be related to abnormal Vitamin D levels. Taking into consideration the family's background of AML, a decision for additional tests would be a good one to make the doubts clear.

I am 20F. Since May, I started a new job in May (retail part time as a student). I've been having nosebleeds since then. During summer it was worse when i was working many many hrs, where it happened alongside dizziness and headaches. Its recently happening again on and off since May- sometimes due to stress and dehydration , dust, allergies and the flu (dont know exact cause). It always come from one nostril.

Female | 20

Noseblee­ds happen, especially with stre­ss, lack of fluids, or breathing in dust and allergens. One­ nostril bleeding is usually no biggie. Try drinking more­ water, avoiding dusty spaces, and using a humidifier. But if it won't quit, be­st to have a doctor check it.

Being tired all the time, getting sick a lot, night sweats, and daily headaches can be hard to deal with. These signs might be caused by different things such as infections, hormonal imbalances, or other medical problems. You need to see a doctor who will be able to find out what is wrong and give you the right treatment so that you can start feeling better.

Dear Doctor, Due to my father's high blood viscosity, suspicion of polycythemia arises, necessitating blood draws every 3 weeks to maintain appropriate levels. At 69 years old, he experiences symptoms such as skin itching, swelling, head numbness, and fatigue. Currently, his JAK2 V617F mutation showed 0.8 then 1.2%, with JAK2 exon 12 negative and EPO at 13.4. Abdominal CT and chest X-ray are normal. After a few months of phlebotomy, his levels normalized. Now, we await the bone marrow biopsy results, which do not confirm Polycythemia Vera: "Microscopic description: The bone marrow biopsy sample shows somewhat hypocellular hematopoietic parenchyma relative to age, which is terminally mature. Myeloid ratio is 2:1 with dominance of late precursors; no blast cells are noted. The number of megakaryocytes is normal with no clustering. There is no interstitial fibrosis or lymphoid infiltrate. Diagnosis: Mature, hypocellular hematopoietic parenchyma without myeloproliferative features. Cytogenetic analysis confirmed male karyotype; no clonal chromosomal abnormalities detected. Indication for examination D7510 Secondary polycythemia Note Submicroscopic rearrangements, small structural chromosomal aberrations, DNA-level differences cannot be ruled out with the method used." I am quite confused as JAK2 positivity typically suggests PV, yet the biopsy suggests otherwise, possibly indicating secondary polycythemia. Could you please clarify based on this information what you personally think is more likely, Polycythemia Vera or another secondary cause? Thank you very much for your help.

Male | 67

Your father's symptoms and test results do suggest some complexity. The presence of JAK2 mutation often points towards Polycythemia Vera (PV), but the bone marrow biopsy does not show typical myeloproliferative features, suggesting it might be secondary polycythemia instead. Consult a hematologist, specializing in blood disorders, and can provide a more accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

Low hemoglobin A2 cause­s weakness and fatigue. Your body lacks iron. Insufficie­nt iron happens when the diet lacks iron-rich foods like­ beans, spinach, red meat. Boost he­moglobin A2 by discussing iron supplements or diet change­s with a doctor.

Based on her symptoms—fever, vomiting, leg pain, and a low white blood cell count—she likely has an infection. This can cause significant discomfort. Antibiotics may help her immune system fight the infection. Make sure she stays hydrated and gets plenty of rest to recover faster.
