HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the swelling could be due to lymph node and possibility of infection need to be ruled out and for that better to get done the blood test and surrounding area for any infection, and if found like that then it need to be treated accordingly, hope this helps, and have a nice day.
