Suggest Remedies For Swollen Lymph Nodes On Neck Of A Child
My 8-year-old daughter has swollen lymph nodes in her neck. The entire chain is slightly swollen and she feels a sharp pain if they are touched, even lightly. She seems to be tired a lot recently even though she has started an earlier bedtime (from 9:30 to 8:30 now) to remedy the situation. There are no other symptoms for which I am aware. Should I take here in to see the doctor as an emergency walk-in or would it be safe to wait a couple weeks for an appointment?

Kindly take an appointment with Paediatrician, meanwhile for reducing pain you can take Paracetamol 7.5mg/kg body weight depending upon weight kindly adjust dose.
