Could an inflamed muscle in the neck cause lymph nodes in the region to become swollen?

If the lymph node is large, rubbery and kind of painful like a bruise, then you have reactive lymphadenopathy. This is an immune reaction to infection. If the inflamed muscle is inflamed because of an infection, then yes, it could be a cause of the node's appearance. If on the other hand, you just pulled the muscle, then it is highly unlikely to be infected, so it would expected that there would be another cause for the lymph node. Often there are small skin infections (say an infected scab or pimple) which can cause reactive nodes. If you are not satisfied, see your doctor so they can properly investigate the swelling. Hope that helps! Aj :)

Alleviate Hemorrhoids Symptoms by Making Dietary Changes?
Hemorrhoids are a common condition that is most often caused by placing too much pressure on the anus and surrounding areas. When this occurs, veins in the anal region can become swollen and inflamed and may even bulge or protrude from the anus. Simply including more high-fiber selections in the diet while eliminating nuts and nut butters, red meat and other foods that can cause constipation will help to alleviate hemorrhoids symptoms by producing softer stools that are easy to pass.
