Swollen Lymph Nodes
      #188523 - 04/28/06 08:20 PM

I had a possible sexual exposure to HIV 3 months ago. I've tested for HIV at 6 weeks and 13 weeks, both were negative.

However, I continue to have swollen lymph nodes which started about 4 weeks after the incident. They're not real swollen but I have one gland in my neck that's swollen and the glands in my groin feel "shotty".

Can other STDs cause swollen lymph nodes?

Yes, many other stds can cause swollen nodes, but they can also be caused, according to medical experts by a number of other factors including stress and anxiety. so here you go.

congratulations, you do not have hiv.

Many, many illnesses, including other STDs, can cause swollen glands. Why not visit your doc and ask for an STD screening?
