OK so my right gland in my neck was swollen since maybe December... that is almost a year... I went to the doctor and she said I was just fighting an infection and then my mom told me that it could permenetly stay swollen at times so I wasn't too concerned about it... however today about ten minutes ago I randomly touvhed my right leg and felt a lump... it is a hard circular like lump that you cannot see but only feel... it is about the size of a penny... my throat is also very sore and have a dryish cough that hurts whenever I cough... obviously... but that is probably from my boyfriend who had a cold and is sick himself... only thing is he has a runny nose at times and I don't at all... I do not have an appatite at all... even before I didn't get hungry at all... I never feel hungry so I sometimes forget to eat at times... either way does anyone have any suggestions on what this could be

Oh I have also forgot to mention that my right leg also tends to be sore from time to time sometimes really bad and sometimes only a little discomfort... however I think that is from when I have tore a ligament and had soft tissue in it as well and possibly tore a cartalige that healed on it's own... when I bend my knees they usually crack but it doesn't hurt along with when the pain is active when I bend my knee it feels like my knee cap is cracking in a million different places... I am not too sure if it is arthritis since it runs in the family or what... I am 20 years old
