Hello,
Thanks for your query.
There is no specific treatment for swollen lymph nodes. Generally, the underlying cause needs to be treated, which may result in the resolution of the swollen lymph node.
Treating an infection causing the swollen lymph node, for example, will result in the lymph node swelling to subside.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
