I have suspected psoriasis in my armpits and when I have a flare up I experience the following: - Itching -Burning -swelling -tightening skin -armpit lymph nodes swell - is this normal for lymph nodes to swell with psoriasis? nothing soothes it... thanks

I'm sorry but I'd have to say no I don't think it's normal. You say suspected psoriasis? Your doc should biopsy to make sure. Lymph nodes swelling sounds more like underlying infection or issue to me.

@tmenebro I have multiple swollen lymph nodes in my neck and have since April. The doctors have scanned my neck and put a camera down my throat to check and nothing came back, even my bloods were clear! I also have scalp psoriasis and a specialist did say that could be the reason! My neck is sometimes so painful, does your neck get painful?
