* Lymphadenopathy must be differentiated from [[syphilis]], which may present as [[fever]], [[myalgias]], [[weight loss]], and [[lymph node]] enlargement.<ref name="pmid1590633">{{cite journal |vauthors=Deschenes J, Seamone CD, Baines MG |title=Acquired ocular syphilis: diagnosis and treatment |journal=Ann Ophthalmol |volume=24 |issue=4 |pages=134–8 |year=1992 |pmid=1590633 |doi= |url=}}</ref>


== Treatment ==
*There is no treatment for lymphadenopathy; the mainstay of therapy is treating the underlying condition.<ref name="pmid24753638">{{cite journal |vauthors=Mohseni S, Shojaiefard A, Khorgami Z, Alinejad S, Ghorbani A, Ghafouri A |title=Peripheral lymphadenopathy: approach and diagnostic tools |journal=Iran J Med Sci |volume=39 |issue=2 Suppl |pages=158–70 |year=2014 |pmid=24753638 |pmc=3993046 |doi= |url=}}</ref>
**Infectious lymphadenopathy responds well to prompt treatment with antibiotics, and usually leads to a complete recovery. However, it may take months, for swelling to disappear. The amount of time to recovery depends on the cause.
**Neoplastic (malignant) lymphadenopathy usually responds well to systemic chemotherapy.
