What Causes Swelling In Lymph Nodes Behind The Ear Of A Toddler?
My 2 yr old was bitten by fire ants (about 32 bites in total) I administered Benadryl and topical antihistine immediately after cleansing. He hadn t had any lingering adverse affects, but today I noticed swollen lymph nodes behind his ears. Is there a probable correlation?
