I had three vaccines (hepA, typhoid, DTP, and yellow fever) 20 days ago and started taking malaria tablets 2 days before my trip to South Africa. After two days, I felt a massive supraclavicular lymph node on my left side. I immediately started antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication, and the node reduced in size. It's been eleven days, and the lymph node is now the size of a small pea. My boyfriend, a surgeon, says it's soft, mobile, and shrinking, indicating inflammation. I'm still scared and wondering if this could be related to my malaria medication or the vaccines.
