Hi doctors, this is my case. I have been suffering with this which i am thinking to be lymph nodes enlargement. It all started with pain and swelling bilaterally, i took augmentin and some anti-inflammatory. The swelling subsided but a hard tender lump is now formed unilaterally and been there for a week now. The mouth opening has also reduced. What could it be?? Dont have an opg yet.

9yold female. Began 8 days ago with great pain below the ear, tenderness, fever and important swelling. No rash involved. A week ago they took her to the doctor who prescribed #Amoxicillin-clavulanate 500 mg every 8 hours for a week. Currently she is rather euthermic and feels better, but swelling remained and tenderness is still there. Important to say, redness wasn’t there until she began the antibiotic. Couldn’t feel any lymph nodes supraclavicular or in neck. What are your valuable suggestion regarding this case .
