Hi Miff1 , welcome to our community :)
As we wait for people to comment with their experience and advise, i thought i'd share this helpful article about lymph node surgery, including recovery after surgery. Some people do report experiencing mild numbness where the biopsy was done, and well as swelling. Hope this helps - please ensure you also check in with your healthcare team if you are concerned in any way about those symptoms.
Thank you x
