What Is The Reason For Having Cold, Sores On Mouth And Swelling Of Lymph Node In Neck?

Never had this before in my 55 yrs of life. I had a head cold for the past week and half. About 5 days ago I developed sores on one half of the roof of my mouth. I didn t have a sore throat with this cold, minor lymph node swelling on my neck. What the heck is this? Thanks!

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some bacterial infection in your throat giving rise to enlarged lymph node in the neck.
Go for one antibiotic medicine like Azzithromicin for 3 days.
Do salt water gargling.
Avoid cold drinks and junk food.
Ok and take care.
