[|AI|]  Hi Em ran, Thanks for posting in Chat Doctor and understand your concern. Lymph node swelling in the neck is indicative of most commonly infection. HIV infection per se does not cause lymph node enlargement directly. It will decrease the immunity and thus gives a chance for secondary infection to happen. To know the reason behind your lymph node swelling, you can get Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) investigation done. That will tell you about the cause of the enlargement. Mainly, infection due to tuberculosis needs to be ruled out. Also, to be sure of your HIV status, since you are sexual activity, get your blood tested for HIV. Kindly visit a Physician with the reports for proper management. Wish you good health.
