Dear,
You need not be concerned at this moment. It seems to be an inflammatory node only.Just start a course of Antibiotic like Tab Ceftum 500 mg bd for five days after taking something.In all probability the node should resolve with this. In case it does not than you can consult any qualified surgeon.
