Can Scalp Psoriasis, Post-nasal Drip, Sore Throat Cause Painless Enlarged Lymph Nodes?

Can scalp psoriasis or long term post nasal drip with ear pain and sore throat cause painless enlarged lymph nodes? I have a couple on each side of my neck and two left supraclavicular. All are painless, movable and under 1cm. Had CBC and CMP blood work done and both came back normal.

Hi..thanks for using Health care magic. According to the symptoms you say, they are probably only reactive lymph nodes.Anyway you can do a Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of lymph node to confirm. Its a basic but very useful test which will help you to proceed further. Thank you
