doctor, Last month i had viral fever along with swollen lymph node on right side. I took even malarial drug because of it I got sulpha allergy . All over the body I had rashes and now except in face and neck it had gone. Now after 20 days i got swollen lymph node on the left side of the neck below the jaw. Iam suffering from severe cough and slight cold.On the right side of the neck below the ears I can feel the pain if I touch that portion. Can you guide me? Which specialist should i consult. REGARDS
Hi thanks for your question Cough and cold indicates upper respiratory tract infection (URI).URI can produce enlargement of adjoining lymph nodes.(left or right depending upon which side is more involved by infection) With the treatment of URI, lymph node can regress. If you want to consult a specialist, you can consult a physician specialist or an ENT specialist Hope this answers your question
