Hi doctors. My son 1.5 years old weight 10.7 kg having swallown 3  nodes just behind ear and 1 on neck . it is for about 20-25 days. In starting it was very small but now large and 3 behind ears and 1 on neck. No pain no redness .   I tested for tuberculosis skin test which was negative and done chest xray and blood test to confirm. So I m attaching x ray and blood test for confirmation. Maintaux test show negative. So what are the reasons for these swallown nodes. Please explain . and one more thing .he pulls his ear more times and sometime slaps on ear. And I can see white dry thing inside both ears. So these nodes can be due to ear infection. What to do.

Don't worry,just get ear examination and get wax removed.  There are so many reasons for node enlargement in that region. As per history it may be due to ear infection.it will be helpful if you attach node enlargement region photos.
Next Steps
ENT exam. Antibiotics may be needed.
