Lymph nodes 3 cm have remained unchanged for more than twenty years. There are three main treatment options, which include conservative observation, puncture biopsy and surgical resection.
1. Conservative observation: If the lymph node itself has remained unchanged and if there are no symptoms, it can continue to be observed regularly. If it appears to be rapidly enlarged or painful within a short period of time, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further examination in a timely manner.
2. Puncture biopsy: to further determine the nature of the lesion, the tissue can be punctured to do pathology to see the specific tissue type and exclude the tumor.
3. Surgical excision: if you have local pain and discomfort and want to do further treatment, you can have radical excision through surgery, and then do pathological biopsy to determine the specific condition.
