Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns.
Allergies do not cause enlargement of the lymph nodes. It may be a possible infection which is causing it. Meet your physician so that you can be assessed properly. You may need to use antibiotics .
Meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain
Get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
