it is sinus viral or allergic the chronic irritation can cause lymph node enlargement
it is allergic and if food protein it can cause muscle weekness
get xray pns waters view and get allergy tests for cause
allergy doctor consultation can tell you by doing blood serum tests for specific antibodies for milk aheat potato and common food you take
