What Does A Lump On Shoulder Blade Of A Child Indicate?
My son is 10 years old, we have only notice a a little lump on his shoulder blade area( more towards his arm) when we apply the cream for his spider bite. The bite was very red and itchy. We are wondering is that lymphatic node reaction to the spider bite or it is something else?

Hi...you may be right. It can be a local reaction to the spider bite or a lymphatic node reaction. But as of now you need not worry. But if it is increaisng in size or has increasing redness or fever, you better consult your pediatrician or physician.
