How is Lymphadenopathy diagnosed?
Lymphadenopathy always is not a dangerous disease. However, since it can contribute as a symptom for a possible tumour, its diagnosis assumes significance. Usually, your doctor will conduct a physical examination to check extension of lymphade- nopathy.
Your doctor will ensure that Lymphadenopathy is not a result of any of your routine medications or infections. If you have a large, swollen area but you’re not feeling sick and you didn’t recently have a cold, flu, upper respiratory infection or skin infec- tion, you’ll need further tests, like complete blood count , peripheral smear examination and imaging scans or a biopsy. Never never believe on FNAC test which is an obsolete test now a days but still being advised by many doctors
