Hi.. Thanks for the query.. As per your complain swollen lymph nodes are commonly seen when you have upper respiratory tract infection and as if is a viral infection, the virus will run its course and as the infection will subside the swelling of the lymph nodes will also reduce.. However there is a possibility that if there is secondary bacterial infection, then you might need a course of antibiotics for resolution.. You can do cool compresses over the lymph nodes for relief.. As of now you should take supportive treatment for the upper respiratory infection like: -Gargle with a warm saline solution that is by mixing 1 teaspoon salt in a glass of water and warm it to make a luke warm solution.. -Take a combination of decongestant like Phenylephrine, mucolytic like Ambroxol and anti allergic levocetrizine and another combination of Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen.. -Take cough expectorant containing Gueifenesin and cough suppressant containing Dextromethorphan. -Chew a Vitamin C pellet daily.. -Do steam inhalations.. -Avoid spicy and chilled foods.. -Sip on warm water throughout the day.. Hope this information helps.. Regards..
