you have many lymph nodes threw out your body if swollen it means you are fighting an infection of some king but i don't believe hiv or stds cause swelling lymph nodes something as simple as having a cold sore or one ready to appear may cause them to swell under the chin or neck area seek medical treatment its you bodys way of talking to you.
swollen lymph node next to adam's apple possible std or hiv? . i have been with someone for 4 months and we have had protected and unprotected sex. we have also had unprotected oral sex. i had developed a sore throat a few days ago with a swollen lymph node but the last time i went down on him was about two weeks ago. my sore throat is almost gone but not the lymph node. i also had a mild cold around that time. i was wondering if it is possible for an std to develop in the throat even if it has been a while since i've performed oral sex on him?
