Swelling under neck.

2019-07-16 08:16:01
I have got strep throat 2 weeks ago and I took a tablet asking in general medical shop.In 2 days the strep throat went away. After that I see little swelling under my neck front part.I went to an ENT doctor and took U/S neck scan. I use to have a cyst in neck from my child hood. The report shows a cyst and also 'evidence of small volume bilateral cervical lymphnodes with preserved fatty hilum of 8*3 mm. My doctor said it is due to infection of your cyst. I want to know how the infection comes( source) and is this dangerous.I request a suggestion.Thanks. I also attached my report
