What Causes Swollen Lymph Node And Pain Across The Chest?

I have a student who had cubital lymph node swelling in the right elbow yesterday and the day before. She went to ER because of pain and was told to go home and rest. There is now pain all the way up the right arm across her chest and into the other armpit. They don t know what has caused this issue but have prescribed anti-inflammatory and antibiotic. This after having the flu twice and exhaustion.
