Swollen lymph nodes in neck?!
Question: I have a pain in my bottom left side of the neck...it hurts when I turn it, when I talk, when I swallow or chew..not too much pain but I can feel a bit discomfort. I looked in the mirror several times and I cant see any swelling. I touched my neck and I alsocouldnt feel any nodes. Are my lymph nodes swollen but I cant see or feel them? Do they swell this way or usually they are visible/feeled?

usually u can feel it, but to an untrained hand you may not know what to feel/look for.
I would go to the doctor.. swollen lymph nodes typically mean theres an infection near-by in that part of the body.
