Question
What’s wrong with the bumps on my baby’s left neck?
Answer
According to the description, the bumps on the baby’s neck are likely lymph nodes. Children can have palpable lymph nodes on their necks, especially those who frequently catch colds. The swelling of lymph nodes in children is a normal phenomenon as their lymphatic system is growing and developing. However, if the lymph nodes swell significantly, treatment may be required. Generally speaking, no treatment is needed; just close observation is sufficient. If the lymph nodes have a persistent fever, a blood pressure check is necessary to see if there are any issues. If there are no symptoms, no treatment is needed.
