Hi,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic.
Lymhadenitis may be due to throat infection of non specific nature.
Hence antibiotic treatment with Erythromycin may be tried.
You have already excluded TB as per your investigations.
Hope this answer serves your purpose .
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
