Should I wait it out or go to immediate care?!


Question: Should I wait it out or go to immediate care!?
I've had a swollen lymph node before it was about 3 years ago but never went away!. Now I'm 17 and just about 2 weeks ago I got 1 new one (I'm guessing it's a node) under my jaw and I found a whole bunch of something thats swollen in my left breast and one in my right!. I'm pretty sure they are nodes also but I'm not a doctor!. I have felt really tired lately so my body is probably fighting some kind of infection right!? well I tried to make a doc apoint!. but they can't get me in for 2 weeks so they said I should go to immediate care but I don't think it needs immediate attention!. What do you think!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I wouldn't run off to the ER, however if you can't get into the Dr!.s for 2 weeks You should go to a prompt care to get some antibiotics!.
When your lymph nodes swell like that it is an indication of some type of infection somewhere and they are taking the brunt of it!.
The only time my daughters jaw swelled up under her jaw was when she had cat scratch fever!. she didn't even remember getting scratched!.
It's not easy to figure out what is causing the infection without a series of test to check your blood and urine to see the extent of the infection!.
good luck and please let us know what you find out!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
