How Long did it take for Swollen Lymph Nodes in Neck to go Down?

Posted by lovetoshop @lovetoshop, May 19, 2023

How long did it take for swollen lymphnodes in your neck to go down post covid? Mine have been swollen on one side for 2 1/2 months. ENT doesn't seem concerned. Sometimes it is painful, and sometimes I have difficulty swallowing. What did you do to make yours better?

I have swelling on both sides of my face. The MRI conclusion was that I had fatty Buccal Pads. Why this popped up on both sides of my face at the same time is a mystery to every doc, along with large masses developed about a week later on my shoulders. I was told that Liposuction was the only remedy. OK, I will do that once I find out the cause. Something had to happen within my body to cause the pads in my mouth to all of a sudden swell up, as well as the ones on my shoulders a week or so later. The CT scan and the MRI don't show anything alarming.
I join, and sympathize. with the thousands of us whose lives have been so changed by this awful virus. Praying for help.

I think covid just does whatever it pleases to us. My doctor told me it was just like a cold; I would describe it as brutal. I have discovered that warm water salt gargles make everything feel better in my throat. I hope things improve for you. My brother has had a head to toe rash for almost three months post covid. The dermatologist has tried just about every medication available and it is still there. People mostly don't talk about covid anymore, but I have learned that just about any symptom is possible with it.

I have had swelling in my neck on both sides since contracting Covid. I thought it was my lymph nodes, but my ENT said it was my Salivary glands that were swollen.

At times, one is larger than the other. At times, they make it hard to swallow because they are very swollen.
