Can coughing too hard cause your lymph node to swell up?
Coughing too hard can lead to irritation and inflammation of the lymph nodes in the neck, causing them to swell. This is usually a temporary response and should resolve once the underlying cause, such as a respiratory infection, is treated. However, if the swelling persists or is associated with other concerning symptoms, it's important to seek medical evaluation.

Can lymph nodes swell from hard constant rubbing?
About two years ago, I discovered a pea-size lymph node right in front of my left shoulder. I was not sure what this was, so I kept messing with it and rubbing it. The next morning, it was enlarged. I then realized that it was indeed a lymph node and that I had irritated it. A few months went by, and the lymph node was the size of a lima bean. Being concerned, I visited my doctor. I explained to her what I had done. Just to be safe, she orderd a CT scan of my neck and a complete blood count. The blood work was fine and the CT scan was fine. The CT scan report read that I had a "benign" cervical lymph node in my neck that was enlarged. More than likely, I had aggravated it to the point that it will never return to its original pea-size shape. I still find myself checking it.

Can smoking cause swollen lymph nodes in the neck?
Yes, lymph nodes can swell in response to irritation caused by tobacco smoking. Repeated damage in chronic tobacco smoking habits can lead to swollen lymph nodes. Lymph nodes swell due to increase WBC and lymphocyte activity, as nodes are activated to clear out dead cells and attack cells that may have damaged DNA. Some of these damaged cells may be pre-cancerous or cancerous. This condition can lead to a variety of cancers including lymphoma. Regular irritation causes many different neck glands to react to the damage, thereby causing activity in the immune system leading to the swelling. Lymphocytes and related cell macrophages will drain into the node in the neck if damage is occurring in the upper respiratory system (trachea, upper bronchial tract, throat, near hyoid bone). A network of cervical lymph nodes spans the neck and lower jaw, and "overload" of one node can cause nearby nodes to swell. "Blisters" in the mouth can also occur, as small glands on the inside of the mouth (called "submandible" lymph nodes) swell in response to immune system activity.
