Question
There’s a stationary lymph node 5 millimeters from a child’s left ear. What could be the cause, and what solutions are there?
Answer
This condition could be due to chronic lymphadenitis or reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. For chronic lymphadenitis, traditional Chinese medicine treatments often involve expectorating phlegm, resolving lumps, and clearing heat and detoxifying. For lymphoid hyperplasia, acupuncture therapy is considered an effective treatment method.
