Not likely, something else is going on.

The first symptom may be a small, painless pimple or lesion occurring on the penis or vagina. It is often unnoticed. The infection then spreads to the lymph nodes in the groin area and from there to the surrounding tissue. Complications may include inflamed and swollen lymph glands which may drain and bleed.The onset of symptoms varies widely. The initial lesion may appear from three to 30 days after exposure.

It could be swollen lymph nodes due to infection.  Have a doctor look at them.  FYI, swollen lymph nodes could be a sign of lymphoma, but is usually not.  A  doctor can tell you if its an infection that needs to be treated w/a course of antibiotics.

No, not from how you have described the situation. But you should be careful of infection. \n\nIf, at some point, it does not heal it might be a good idea to have a dermatologist biopsy or evaluate it for you. Keep an eye on it.\n\nIncidentally, when my son was little he had a mole on his neck that kept getting bigger so we had a surgeon remove it. We thought we were protecting him against cancer . . . little did we know that despite doing all we could to protect him a few years later he developed an abdominal cancer. All that time and we worried about the wrong thing! The mole was not the problem . . turns out the tumors were in his abdomen.

Hello,\nFirst of all don't worry about all those comments. I don't think it is a lymph node as they are deep and will not cause obvious swelling. The most likely cause is an infection of the sweat glands, Hidradenitis suppurativa is an annoying chronic condition characterised by swollen, painful, inflamed lesions in the armpits(also affects other areas) which affects 1-2% of the population.\nYou may need antibiotics but you need to see a doctor just to make sure it is not something else. \nGood luck

I am going to answer without more details, but I think this is what you mean. You have a bump in your wrist or hand and it's painful to the touch? They are called ganglion cysts but were called Bible bumps because in the olden days if you had one, you hit it with a Bible (or other large book) and it would break and go away. I've had 4 surgeries to get rid of them. They actually look like a glob of fat (maybe the size of a plum) with little tentacles (like an octopus) that reach into your fingers. The surgery isn't too bad. You're just in a small, supportive bandage for a few weeks.

If the bumps are under the skin it is probably lymph nodes.  Some people call them swollen glands.  They could be caused from some infection in your body, or virus.  Or you could have glandular tissue that gets swollen and tender around your menstrual cycle.  Limiting caffeine can help ease the pain.  Probably nothing to worry about.  If you have swollen painful glands in other parts of your body (neck, groin area) then you probably need to get the doctor to feel them and check them out.  Good luck

No. If you have irritation and swelling, see a doctor. You may have an infection. Chances are, you just arn't used to what it looks like in there.

a swollen lymph node feels like a lump.  I don't know if there are lymph nodes behind your knees, but if there are, you can compare the suspect knee with your other knee.  That technique works well for throats, armpits, etc, too.

Typically, during the day, the testicles will enlarge slightly and after a good sleep they will reduce. This has more to do with blood flow and related factors than any kind of illness or problem.\n\nHowever, if things are bulging out in the area or the penis as well as some swelling, it could be a sign of an inguinal or lower abdominal hernia and a quick check by the doctor will confirm this or refute it.\n\nWhile it could be normal, it would definitely be wise to get ti checked just in case.

I had the exact same thing happen to me a few months ago.  It was an infection.  When an infection is present in the body the lymph nodes are the first things to catch it and react.  That's why your node is swollen.  I took a week of antibiotics and it cleared up within a couple of days.  Those little cysts show up in ears all the time, and if they turn into infections all you need is an antibiotic.  You'll be better in no time.

Could be a benign cyst.  Could be an infected lymph node.  Could be something more serious.  Go to your doctor right away!

Hi there. I had testicular cancer when I was a similiar age to your husband. ( I am now forty). from what you said about it shrinking, then the new problems, it sounds totally unlike cancer. ( from everything i experienced and read)tumours tend to be hard and wouldnt shrink with anti cyst treatment, nor do they grow quite as spectacularly in the time what you described. If its one of the other two, and you obviously live in an area of the world developed enough to have internet access,(and modern medicine) he will be fine. I can fully empathise that any problem in that area freaks men out and those close to us.Trust your doctors, never be afraid of checking stuff out or getting additional opinions, and if its ok with you, I will pray for you both. Best wishes. simon.

If they are non painful and move a little when palpated they are lymph nodes. We all have them.\nIf they are hard or tender they are likely to be sebaceous cysts, that should go down on their own eventually or if they bother you get them lanced (ouch).\nAnyway, any scratches, pimples etc in any area of your head OR any ear infections, sore throat or zits in that area will cause your lymph nodes to swell a bit.
