Hello

Thanks for writing your query.

I read your query and as said you are having stuffiness in nose with occasional cough and the phlegm comming out is green, this favors bacterial infection of sinuses and throat as allergic exudates are always colourless watery and froathy. At the same time you have also noticed an enlarged lymph node in the neck behind the angle of jaw.

As per your symptoms it appears as you are suffering from sinusitis with cervical lymphadenitis.

I don't feel this lump and the other symptoms indicated a possible lymphoma. Now I would like to suggest you for these three basic investigations; they can help us isolate the cause and exclude lymphoma per se

(a) C.T. scan of paranasal sinuses.

(b) Culture and sensitivity of nasal discharge / throat swab.

(c) FNAC from neck lump.

By above investigations one can know about the infecting organism/ slection of antibiotic / pathological process going on. thus after getting this much one can plan for treatment easily.

A qualified ENT surgeon will know about these tests. Therefore it would be worth visiting one.

I hope this answers your query. Let me know if you need clarification.

Regards.
