Lymph Nodes

Causes:

1. Bacterial/Fungi Infection

2. Inflammation from an open wound

3. (some say the high intake of caffeine)

I would like to think that the lymph node grown on my underarm is due to the third cause as stated above.

It's kinda scary when I search online regarding 'lymph nodes' and the results show the relation to terminal diseases such as Melanoma, Breast cancer blah blah.

Well thank God I spoke with Pastor Joyce (who is a nurse) regarding it and she felt my head and neck to see if there were more lymph nodes. So she was saying that since it is only one, most probably it is infection, that's why the lymph node is grown around the infection to enclose it. She added that it would subside within 2 weeks.

To make things really worse, I've been coughing like really bad :(

It feels like my throat is really itchy which apparently triggers the urge for me to stuff something down my throat to scratch it. Whatsmore, my throat hurts when I talk. I don't know what's wrong, but I know that I seriously need antibiotics.
