Suggest Treatment For Enlarged Posterior Lymph Node

Hi I think I have a slightly enlarged posterior lymph node on my left side of neck towards the back. What could this mean? It doesn't hurt. Last year I had a lymph node on the left side under my arm removed and it was negative for anything serious, Should I be concerned?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
If you had biopsy done in the previous lymph node in the arm pit, and proved no importance, now you need not worry.
The lymph node in the neck may be due to the previous infection like prickly heat, boils , ear infection, or head lice.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe, to my patient with such symptoms, erythromycin ,serratiopeptidase,diclofenac, and ascorbic acid.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
