Hi,
Whether these nodules will require surgery or will go off with medical treatment depends on the diagnosis. Lymph nodes enlargement may be primary (with the disease involving the nodes itself) or secondary (reactive in response to disease somewhere else). Symptoms you mentioned here points towards reactive cause,though your description is very insufficient.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
