Swollen lymph nodes on back of head
Please help me and give me some answers.
I am a healthy 20 year old male.
5 days ago I had discovered that my lymph node on the left side of the back of my head is swollen. It has not increased in size since I discovered it but it does kind of heat up sometimes (if you understand what I meant there). When I applied pressure there was very MINIMAL pain/ache, but now it does not hurt at all, however much pressure I put on it. I do not have any symptoms at all but because I am so STRESSED and ANXIOUS my heart beat and pulse raise up, and I just do not an interest for anything other than this. However, I do feel a kind of sharp pain in my liver/gallbladder area when I apply a bit of pressure (I did drink quite a lot of alcohol on each Friday weekend for the last two/three Fridays). I will go to the doctors next week if it does not decrease on size and/or if I have any new symptoms. Please, I am so stressed with the thought of that it might be a tumour. I know you cannot diagnose me thru the internet but please give me some answers.
I have been recently very stressed before this happened for nearly two months, so could stress cause a swelling in the lymph nodes on the head.
PS. No one in my family has no history of cancer.
Please reply to me and thank you in advance.
