Hello,
Any lymph node that is not regressing with antibiotics and with time but is growing needs proper evaluation. You will need to see your doctor and probably have an ultrasound of the neck to identify the mass if it is a lymph node or something else and the characteristics of it.
According to the ultrasound results, the doctor will decide on further steps.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
