Why is mesenteric lymph nodes enlarged

2018-10-30 05:07:14
Hi my son is 12 month old and had severe stomach infection. Since he had incessant vomiting and diarrhoea with severe abdominal pain he was hospitalised for the same. They performed many tests and the doctors said the pain was due to enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes present between the intestines and abdominal wall. now since 5 days he again has the pain, does it mean the nodes are enlarged again?
