Hi Melissa,
Lymph nodes are found throughout your body. Lymph nodes are our defensive system again infections and disease so they are important. Here is a website that provides information as to why lymph nodes may get enlarged http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003097.htm.
Follow up with yor Doctor is necessary if you are expereincing pain. If you are not satisfied with the care given by your doctor, I would certainly request a second opinion. Most physicians will let you visit their office the day you realize that there is something wrong, I would suggest this so they can get a good look at the inflammation. I hope this helps and good luck.
