A. they are lymph nodes and are part of normal human body. you have to take any intervention and meet your doctor only if they are causing pain as well as they are increasing in size. many times during infection tchey will increase in size and they will again decrease in size when the infection gets controlled.

A. If the lump is movable and painless then maybe there is a possibility that it is just lipoma which is a fat ball in the body and does not create any problem just move a little bit here and there but does not move much further but still since it is about a child having an assessment with your paediatric once
