My boy has swollen glands in his neck?

Hello ! My 5 year old boy has two very visible nodes on his neck. They are painless, but I think they are big. He doesn't have any other symptoms yet. Should I see a doctor or wait a few days?

Hello Ma'am,
Has your child had an injury, bumped, fighting an infection, had a stressful or fatiguing episode, or received a vaccine recently?

Maybe he's tired. Back to daycare this week after the vacations. Also, last Saturday he fell off an inflatable play set. His neck bent quite a bit but he had no pain. No apparent vaccinations or infections.

Thank you for returning!
In the absence of other symptoms, monitoring is in order. If it persists for more than a month or worsens, I recommend consulting as a precaution. To that end, I suggest monitoring if he touches it often, which could increase inflammation.
Cordially,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
