Potentially swollen lymph nodes, maybe rash now?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I've been fearful the nodes in my neck are swollen. Earlier today I fel some pain in the back of my throat (under the jaw) and now I have a very rapid pulse in my neck, as well as what appears to be a rash on both sides of my neck (could also be mistaken for some razor burn). Does anyone have some thoughts? I would really appreciate it

      Because they sound physical..meaning viral or bacterial.so good idea to check it out.

      Your thumb has a pulse. You didn't check it with your thumb did you

      the 'pulsing' you feel is probably just that: your pulse.  Lots of veins in the area after all.

      No I checked with my fingers. I also don't know the proper way to check for swollen lymph nodes though (or what they actually feel like). The pulse speed has signigicantly decreased
