Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a reactive lymph node.
The reactive lymph nodes are related to an infection in the system.
I suggest using an anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms.
The lymph node will go away on it's own in time.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
