[|Human|] Hi,My sister was born premature and has endured ensuing lung problems throughout her life. She 19. She has been on prednisone/ cortical steroids forever. Recently doctors have found several enlarged lymph nodes in the cervical region. My family is worried about lymphoma, but I was wondering about the long term affects of prednisone of lymph nodes. Could ou help me.
[|AI|]  Hi, Enlarged lymph nodes generally associated with some diseases. Excision biopsy should be done from at least two of those lymph nodes. Consult your doctor. Any other lymph node swelling in other part of body should also be examined. There are many causes of multiple lymph node swelling. Nothing to worry right now. As long term steroid has been given to her. Possibility of tuberculosis also to be ruled out.
