My 4 year old daughter has a swollen lymph gland (behind her left ear lobe)that I am concerned about. She has had it for almost 3 years with no other symptoms. It looks larger now but i think this may be because i am watching it closer the past few weeks and my daughter is very thin and tall. I have taken her multiple times to her physician and always had it checked and his comments are always "its soft and it moves...so its ok". She is a very energic girl with no other symptoms. It really shows when she looks upwards. Her last regular blook screening was in December and was all good. One additional point is that she has enlarged tonsils and the one specifically on that same side is larger (with a red vein running through it). Any additional information or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks so much!
