Posted before but thought I needed adive on lumph nodes around the neck/head area

Woke up this morning and looks and feels much worse.

could anyone tell me what they do look and feel like.

mine is in the correct place indicating protential HIV,

the guy I had sex has now said he never been tested.

my lymph node, is red but white on top, feels flakly skin, itchy as well. very noticable.

if any adive it be brilliant.

I know it could be another underlining problem but it came up after 9-10 days which is quite soon after the event.

got 2 weeks before my next hiv test.

which makes it 4 weeks then again at 3 months

    Further information

    the lump

    is located

    on the Salivary Gland,

    which if you look is yet again a protential HIV cause

    I know I should not be looking up hours on end but

    just need to rest easy.

    Is this the place most common when new people with hiv get swollen glands at

    Ummmm I don't know anything about HIV but it sounds like strep throat to me.

    You pretty much should know something is unusual because it will be like a little 10 of pain it might feel like a pinch cuz it's breaking the skin. Might just be a bruised feeling for you I should come up with any bumps or blisters that's what mine does.
