Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As you mentioned you have problem of swollen lymphnode of neck that may be because of dental infection or ear or throat related or other reasons.

Consult a ENT specialist for further diagnosis.

Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems.

I hope this will help you.
