So 2 weeks ago I got bitten by an insect of some sort at the top of my right thigh (at the back), and the right lymph node in my "groin" (though it's really nearer my hip), swelled, presumably to fight it, as the bites appeared exactly 1 day before the lymph nodes swelled. The next day the same lymph node on the left swelled a little bit, too, but less than the first.
The bites disappeared a few days ago, though there is a small red mark where each of the bites were still, but both lymph nodes are still swollen and don't seem to have gone down much.
Should I wait it out for a few more days to see if they go down?
PS. The lymph nodes are no where near huge, but can be easy felt through the skin and the larger of the two pushes the skin around it up a little.
