Swelling in Neck: Cancer Concern

Patient's Query

i am a 53 years male person, for last one month i feel swelling in my nech ,can i infected with cancer

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

A swelling in your ne­ck could come from different cause­s - not cancer alone. Infections or othe­r issues might make it happen. Cance­r wouldn't be the only re­ason for neck swelling. Along with a lump, feve­r, cough, and weight loss would occur if it were cance­r. It's wise to let a doctor examine­ you thoroughly and pinpoint the trigger behind the­ swelling.

I'm a 20 year old male, with one swollen groin lymph node or so it feels that I've discovered about a month and a half ago, it was tender for about the first week but isn't anymore

Male | 20

When you have infections, the lymph nodes in your groin tend to swell up. It could be that there is a simple infection or in some rare cases, something more serious. Since it is now more than a month and there is no pain, this shows positive progress. It would be wise however to see a doctor if they do not go away or you experience any other symptoms.

My uric acid test report 5.9 please tell me ok not ok

Male | 29

The uric acid level of 5.9 is already above normal. It might remain asymptomatic at first, yet if untreated, it may lead to gout, which is characterized by pain and swelling in the joints. Your uric acid level can be decreased by drinking more water, avoiding alcohol, and less red meat and seafood. Besides this method, exercising regularly may also be beneficial.

Your WBC count is slightly low at 3.73; RBC is normal at 4.57. NEU is also lower at 1.78. Low WBC sugge­sts weaker immunity, making infections more­ likely. Have nutritious meals, ample­ sleep, stay hydrated. If unwe­ll, see a doctor for examination and guidance­.

Systematic increases in immature granulocytes Good morning, Firstly, I will mention that I suffer from numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, as this may be relevant. These include Ulcerative Proctitis; Atrophic Gastritis; Last year, I also underwent two cervical electrosurgery procedures due to advanced dysplasia (CIN3). (The last colposcopy and colonoscopy did not reveal any suspicious changes) For a year now, my blood morphology tests have been showing an elevated level of immature granulocytes: The latest test (May '24) showed: Immature granulocytes IG - 0.09 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 1.00; Norm: 0-0.5% The rest of the blood morphology is normal, leukocytes in urine - within the norm. Previous results (April '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.05 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.7; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV) Even older (January '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.04 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.6; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV and basophils) There is a clear upward trend since last year. I initially thought this was due to extreme stress (CIN3, LLETZ etc). Now I am not so sure... Are these results very concerning and indicative of a cancerous process? Can chronic inflammatory states cause an increase in IG, or is it rather some kind of “acute” disease state? Could the fact that I rode a bike to the laboratory (medium and short-term physical effort) affect the increase in results? I would be very grateful for your response and advice. Best regards, J.

Female | 40

Raised levels of these are often linked to chronic inflammation similar to stress, in this case, it is important to control them initially. With the status of attempted diagnosis for specific inflammatory conditions, your previous experience, and the new procedures on the lookout for anything new, don't hesitate to let a doctor know. It would be helpful to get solid advice from your healthcare provider concerning your test results.
