Hello doctor. I had acne on my buttock 2 times in the same place, both were oozing pus. After they dived, there was a painless nodule just below the surface of the skin and recently two or three moles appeared on my legs and face. I looked online and found out that this is a sign of skin cancer. Doctor advise me. Thank you doctor.

Hello. Swollen lymph nodes anywhere on the body are also a warning sign of a health condition that needs attention. When you see lymph nodes in your neck, you should see a doctor soon to get the most accurate diagnosis. Treatment will depend on the cause of the lymphadenopathy. After treatment, you need to have regular check-ups to monitor the results and promptly adjust the therapy if the current method is not effective.
You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health system to be examined and consulted by experienced specialists.
