My son has an enlarged lymph node in the inner bicep area. An untrasound was performed. Would an MRI be more conclusive or is biopsy the only way to see if this could be malignant. He has no injury or signs of illness just 1 enlarged node measuring around 3cm. It is also tender to the touch and he is 6 years old
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have enlarged lymph node on inner bicep around 3\u00a0cm. I would suggest you to keep it clean and Chat Doctor.  If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may check tenderness and consistency along with blood test and take sample for lab test. Doctor may prescribe antibacterial or anti-viral depending upon the diagnosis along with anti-inflammatory. Doctor may also recommend surgical excision under local anesthesia. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
