Swollen painful lymph nodes in arm pits
I have had swollen and painful glands in my neck for about 3 months with no infection. Now my auxillary lymph nodes are swollen and very painful. My daughter had MRSA and is better now but I have been exposed. We did not know she had it for 3 weeks. I have an appointment with my primary next week but I'm curious if you can every get MRSA or Staph without a skin infection. I do not have any type of skin infection anywhere.
