Your child is having subclinical hypothyroidism and repeat TSH after 2 months to titrate the dose. Get an anti TPO antibody find to identify the pathology. You have not mentioned the size of nodule. If it is more than 1cm and if the lymph node is abnormal, consider a fine needle aspiration cytology test. Lump feeling is is unlikely to be due to thyroid... moreover nothing to be worried about.
