I would suggest you wait it out if its not painful as you mentioned. Most likely the nodes will get back to normal since any infection has been taken care of.
Next Steps
jus make sure you are not constantly feeling for them as frequent checking can also lead to them being temporarily swollen.
Health Tips
wait it out. thank you :)
