When a disease spreads to or involves the lymph nodes, they become enlarged and swollen – this is called lymphadenopathy and is a common sign of infection. Swollen lymph nodes can be caused by a multitude of different conditions and swelling of these glands is often one of the first signs that something is wrong.

The causes of swollen lymph nodes include
Fungal Infections (e.g. Yeast infections)
Menstrual Cycle
Cancer of the breast, lung, stomach, throat and melanoma
Alcoholism and alcohol abuse
Stress & Anxiety
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)
Viral Infections (e.g. Influenza, Mumps, Glandular Fever)
Bug Bites
Tooth Decay
Bacterial infections (e.g. Tonsillitis, infected cuts, and abscesses)
Parasitic infections
Bulimia
Gaucher’s disease
Hodgkin’s disease
HIV
Hyperthyroidism
Non-Hodgkins Lymphomas
Sarcoidosis
Siogren’s Syndrome
Strep Throat
Thyroiditis
Enlargement of the glands can be rapid or gradual. Rapid swelling is common with viral or bacterial infections and can be accompanied by pain. Other diseases such as cancer usually cause a slow and gradual growth, which tends to be pain-free.

Lymphoedema is the term used to describe swelling of a part of the body due to obstruction of the flow of the lymph. This tends to occur after removal of the lymph glands for conditions such as cancer (e.g. swelling in the arm after surgery for breast cancer) when the lymph glands are removed. Sometimes lymphoedema may also present itself after treatment for lymphoma following radiotherapy or lymph node biopsy.
