Question

What’s going on with the lymph node swelling on a child’s neck?

Answer

Hello, based on your description, this may be due to inflammation caused by regional pathogenic bacteria. I suggest giving your child oral Amoxicillin and Metronidazole to try, and pay attention to rest, avoid irritating food, and drink plenty of water. If the recovery after surgery is not good, it might be due to improper regional hygiene care causing adhesions. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up and apply disinfectant or physiological saline for cleaning.
