Lymph node swelling can occur because various reasons and if there is no progressive enlargement or pain in the lymph node then you need to worry about it. You may need to undergo fine needle aspiration cytology of the swelling to confirm cause for lymph node enlargement
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
