Hello
It seems from the history that you are having enlargement of the lymph node on the neck.
This is usually seen in inflammations or infections in the drainage area, in your case in face. The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
But in chronic cases involving the lymph nodes of neck other causes like graulomatous inflammation caused by tuberculosis need to be ruled out.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
