I have swollen face had shown to doctor
I have done scan of the face shown multiple lymphnode enlargement then 5days of treatment of antibiotic bug no relief.
Why did you go for a scan? Any other problems? How long have the lymph nodes been enlarged. Any otger medical history? Thyroid normal?
Sometimes a 5 day course wouldnt suffice if there is some other underlying infection.
Need to see which nodes are enlarged too.
Clinical examination required.
Please visit a doctor with the scan

Hello Mam. Multiple lymph node enlargement is the sign of infection. But initially the cause for infection has to ruled out whether it is due to dental / medical problem.Kindly consult an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon nearby as soon as possible and get the oral examination done and later on his advise you can go with the medical opinion also...!!
