Hello,
With the question "Recurring sore throat, what is the cause of the swollen lymph nodes in the neck?" , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
I don't know if you have checked your tonsils or have had tonsillectomy. But the cause of recurrent sore throat is often related to chronic tonsillitis and diseases related to reflux. In addition to maintaining hygiene, gargle daily. You should visit the doctor with endoscopy to determine the correct cause and appropriate treatment.
If you still have questions about sore throat, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. I wish you a lot of health.
