Hello.i have gone through your question. It seems you are getting recurrent infection.Lymph nodes usually enlarge if you catch some infection. If there is blood in cough then the most common cause can be infection of the lungs(Bronchitis). I would suggest to take appropriate antibiotics, steam inhalation and bronchodilater syrup. I hope this helps. Take care get back to me if you have any other queries. Thanks
