Lymph nodes in the neck are very common findings and most of them are not pathological. They are commonly due to routine dermatological, dental, throat infections. They slowly reduce in size after treatment of the primary problem
Next Steps
Since FNAC has come negative you need not worry. Biopsy is required only if it increases in size of more than 1.5cm,if many more swellings appear or if it becomes acutely painful
