Hi sir...it was good behavior to do ultrasound as investigation for this swollen lymph node....as the ultrasound indicate that it is muscle so you need not to do anything for it...just accept that and live with it...there is no problem of that except psychological......when you have sinusitis or any infection it will increase in size as lymph node have important role in immunity, and it defends against infection....you need not put heating pad for it...no indication for that ...the only thing to do is to accommodate with that ......hope that I helped you...wish you healthy life...thanks for contacting us
