 Hello and thanks for posting. Swollen lymph nodes could be the sign of many things, including just plain HIV itself. If you've had enlarged lymph nodes, especially if they're not painful (infection usually results in tender nodes), you should let your health care provider know. Depending on the size and appearance, you may need additional tests to confirm what's going on. Be well, BY | ||||||||
