16M - Multiple swollen lymph nodes, scared out of my mind for lymphoma.

About 2 months ago, I noticed my lymph node swelling on the left side of my neck (mastoid lymph node I believe). Not much symptoms, just it was swollen which is was a bit odd. It would swell up and go down, it wouldn’t swell too much but painless and firm, moveable slightly but not much and would return to his original position almost immediately.

Over the last 2 months I’ve seen some other lymph nodes swelling though they would go down very quickly, specially under my jaw and groin. No lymph node swelling in armpit (yet).

The lymph node swelling under my jaw and groin would hurt relatively and moveable. Tonight I noticed a lymph node above my clavicle to swell. Again, moveable but really worried that I have lymphoma because of the swelling. The lymph node behind my ear just swells and goes down randomly, I could feel them tonight and they’d be swollen but wake up tomorrow and I wouldn’t be able to feel them at all. None of the lymph nodes are visible when swollen to my knowledge (bar the ones under my jaw which protrude slightly when they swell)

Everything I’ve seen have had different symptoms and stuff for lymphoma which is why I’m so worried. I don’t have night sweats, itching or fatigue though, no weight loss either. I have lost my appetite but that could be due to stress.

Just looking for a bit of clarity on this and sorry if it seems dumb. I’m 5’10 and 40kg (88lbs). On no meds, suffer from GERD, psoriasis and sinus issues.
