Swollen Lymph Gland On Center Neck. Stung By Bees. Normal?
Hi there,
I got stung by 3-4 bees on my head 2 days ago. Specifically 1 on my forehead and 2/3 on my neck just below the hairline on my right side. Yesterday afternoon I noticed my lymph glad in my neck on the right side was quite swollen. The gland that lies in the centre of your neck. In line with your ear about 3 or 4 fingers above your collar bone and about 3 or 4 fingers below your jaw. So centre neck.
This morning its a actually sensitive to touch and my neck feels stiff-ish.
Is this normal or should I go see a doctor?

Hi,
It seems that due to bee bites allergic reaction on that area giving rise to enlarge lymph nodes.
Take antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for 1-2 days and you will be alright.
Ok and take care.
