Hello dear
Lymph node swelling is common in many bacterial and viral infections.
It doesn't mean that lymphatic system is damaged.
Next Steps
Tinnitus may be related to your problem as the fluid in ear ossicles is mainly lymphatic. For proper understanding and treatment formulation, your problem needs to be examined Physically/Video based. Thanks and regards.
