Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have enlarged cervical lymphnode. It can be due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis or lymphoma. Reactive hyperplasia is the most common condition. You should take a course of antibiotics. If it doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable. Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
