Such lymph nodes are very common and due to old infection usually. There is no need to worry unless they increase in size. They may stay for a very long time. Get them them checked every month if you feel worried.

Hello, Small pea size lump - could be lymph node. If size is same and not painful - wait. Check for head/ hair infection. Or consult online. Follow my Instagram/tiwari_child_clinic for Health Q&A. 🙏Tiwari child clinic Delhi🙏

Seems like a lymph node. Nothing to worry about if there is no fever, redness of swelling or pain on touching it. Head / oral cavity/ ent infections can give rise to swelling.  Even dandruff can give rise to it. Kindly check for above. If any focus seen, can take online consult for further management.
