My daughter is 3 years old and she has a very enlarged lymph node on her left side of the neck, she has a fever that goes up and down from 38 to 38.9. Uesterday we wentnto the clinic and she got an antibiotic Amoxi Clav TID. She is still in pain doesnt want to eat.
Hello, Firstly sorry to hear about your daughter. Now coming to point. Did you show to a proper pediatric? Intact nowadays there are different branches in pediatric, and you need to consult the right one. Now there should be a reason for the enlargement of the lymph node. We need to find the reason for it. A good specialized pediatric should be able to guide you better. No one provides antibiotic to a small kid unless and until it is the last choice. Please meet up the specialized pediatric and get assessed with blood, urine and sometimes stool. Rest assured, once the cause of infection is found the treatment will be directed towards the same. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Jay In Chat Doctor.
