Hello,
As per my surgical experience, the lump in the throat with swollen lymph nodes suggests an underlying bacterial infection of upper or lower respiratory tract.
In our clinic, I recommend:
- Gargles with salted lukewarm water
- Hydration maintenance
- Antibiotic, anti-inflammatory medicines
- Avoidance of smoking if doing
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
