lymph nodes
      #174678 - 02/11/06 02:52 PM

If you are HIV + do all of your lymph nodes swell or can it just be in one area? Does it happen often? How long would they swell for I had swollen lymph nodes in one area and it went away after a few days. Was wondering if I should get ttested. I think im at a low risk have been with my boyfriend for a long time and before that practiced safe sex.

Lymph nodes swell for lots of reasons. It is a normal response to a number of different things. You cannot diagnose HIV from symptoms. Only by getting a test. If you are at low risk then you are low risk. Don't go looking for symptoms or you will worry forever. If you think you may be at risk.. then get tested and know. Don't spend your life worrying.
