Is Swollen lymph glands a symptom of GONORRHEA?

Swollen lymph glands, also known as lymphadenopathy, can be a symptom of various illnesses, including Gonorrhea.¹

In the case of Gonorrhea, swollen lymph glands are typically accompanied by other symptoms such as a sore throat, painful urination, abnormal discharge from the vagina or penis, and rectal pain with blood discharge.²

It is important to note that swollen lymph glands are not specific to Gonorrhea and can indicate other illnesses or infections. Therefore, it is crucial to seek professional medical advice for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. If you have swollen lymph nodes along with any of the aforementioned symptoms, there is a possibility that you may have a Gonorrhea infection.
