Yes. This is quite common. The condition is called lymphadenopathy, and it means that you have swollen lymph nodes. The lumps could be anywhere on your neck, back or occasionally on your cheek. These are most commonly caused by stress and will generally go away by themselves in a few hours or a few days at worst. If they do not go away, however, then you should see your doctor, as lymphadenopathy can be a sign for a more serious condition such as lymphoma or leukaemia (cancer) or another lymphatic disorder, or part of a range of other serious conditions.
