Suggest Treatment For Swollen Lymph Node In The Neck

Unless they start increasing in size you need not worry.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone very carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Unless the lymph nodes start enlarging, we would not get concerned. A single examine (by the pediatrician) cannot determine whether the size is increasing. Since you have been observing it far longer than the pediatrician, I rely more on your observation that on the comment by the pediatrician. But there is no doubt to the fact that you need to remain observant. You need not get worried. It is common for children to get infections. Such infection can get contained in the lymph nodes leading to swollen lymph nodes. Such things often happen when the child gets oropharyngeal infections or even due to common cold.
If the child is active and fine and if the lymph nodes do not enlarge, you do not need to get concerned.
Regards
