What Causes Lumps On The Left Side Of The Neck?

Hi, I have acne vulgaris and the doctor prescribed me flucloxacillin and retin a cream. I am on the 16th day and today I noticed having 2 lumps on the left side of my neck, 1 near the ear and another one near the shoulder. What could be the cause of the lumps and should I be warried?

Hi,
Due to acne vulgaris there is bacterial infection in acne pimples leading to enlarged lymph nodes in neck or auricular region.
Nothing to worry, it is bound tobe there.
Continue with Flucloxaciln, with clearing infection you will be alright.
Ok and take care.
