What should I do if a 3 year old baby has a hard bump next to his neck?

In fact, these small bumps are lymph nodes. Because lymph tissues, especially lymph nodes, develop rapidly within 1 year of age, healthy children may feel lymph nodes in superficial parts of the body, such as behind the ears, neck, under the jaw, armpits, and at the base of the thighs (i.e., groin). However, the normal lymph nodes in these parts are generally not more than the size of soybeans, and there are many single ones, with a soft texture, which can slide under the skin, and do not stick together with the surrounding tissues.

However, lymph nodes should not be palpated under the chin, supraclavicular fossa, and elbows. In some abnormal cases, lymph nodes can also become abnormally enlarged. Lymph nodes make lymphocytes in the blood, and these lymphocytes act as a defense against bacteria.

The lymph nodes in each part are connected to nearby organs or tissues by channel lymphatic vessels, just like the "sentinels" around the body, which can destroy the bacteria and stop the bacteria from spreading outward when the adjacent tissues or organs are attacked by bacteria. As a result, the lymph nodes themselves are swollen, can be felt with the hand, and are painful or tender. Therefore, it is possible to infer the location of the infection caused by bacteria from the location of the swollen lymph nodes.

If the lymph nodes are swollen, it may be caused by inflammation of the mouth and pharynx, and the head-occipital lymphadenopathy may be caused by inflammation of the head and back of the neck. Although the lymphatic system develops rapidly within 1 year of age, its barrier defense function is still poor in the early stage, and it is not easy to control infection, so it is easy to spread in case of infection, and even cause sepsis. By the end of 1 year of age, the lymphatic system is more mature and can surround and destroy the invading bacteria in the local lymph nodes, so that the infection does not spread.

For example, tonsillitis or suppuration of the tonsils is common in children at the end of 1 year of age, which is a manifestation of localized infection by lymphoid tissues (tonsils are also lymphoid tissues similar to lymph nodes). Generally, swollen lymph nodes last for a long time, and often the infection of the bacterial area has been controlled, but the nearby lymph nodes can still be enlarged.

Analysis:

Hello, your child's condition should be considered to be lymph nodes, if tender, inflammation needs to be ruled out.

Suggestions: Judge whether the child's lymph nodes are normal from the following points.

Second: mobility, normal lymph node mobility is good, if there is adhesion, it is considered pathological lymph node enlargement.

Third: with or without tenderness, normal lymph nodes are not tender. If tenderness is present, children are more likely to cry or report pain when touched.

Don't doubt yourself, go to the hospital.

Lymph nodes do not become inflamed and swollen for no reason, they are all caused by inflammation (such as inflammation, wounds, etc.) in their vicinity. If there is this inflammation nearby, then the disease of the lymph node is ordinary lymphadenitis. Staying up late, tiredness, anxiety and anger can also be caused.

In addition, if you push it with your fingers, if it has good mobility, and if the lymph node is not adhered to the surrounding ** and muscles, it is also lymphadenitis. It's not lymph node tuberculosis, and it's not a big disease like cancer or tumor that you are worried about, and you don't need to do such and such instrument examinations. The distinction between common lymphatic diseases and lymphoma can also be distinguished from the length of time:

Lymphadenitis and lymph node tuberculosis can exist for many years, but the support time of lymphoma will not last long (the respectable and amiable Luo Jing, the country's top expert consultation**, from the onset of the disease to the death of only 10 months. )

The rule of lymph nodes is that when there is inflammation in any part of the body, the adjacent lymph nodes will swell when they are defended and sterilized. After the inflammation is cured, the lymph nodes may not be better.

Lymph nodes, which are the immune system, are difficult to treat, and some chronic lymphadenitis can last for several years or more than ten years.

If the lymphadenopathy is mild, after a while, it will naturally get better; Or take some anti-inflammatory drugs in the ordinary sense, and take some anti-inflammatory injections, it will be fine. That's not a big deal. But if the swelling is severe, and the inflammation is not healed for a long time, then you need traditional Chinese medicine**:

One is to avoid its further aggravation and deterioration, and the other is that the body needs to restore its function, exert its immune bactericidal effect, and enhance physical fitness.

Lymphatic diseases seem to be a small disease, but so far the effects of drugs produced in hospitals and pharmaceutical factories have not been satisfactory. Chinese medicine can be fully considered. It is treated with traditional Chinese medicine pills that dispel stasis and dissolve knots, detoxify and reduce swelling, and target pimples, lumps and inflammation.

As long as you find the right medicine, it is not difficult for you to know. Due to my work, the author is well aware of the charm of traditional Chinese medicine, and has witnessed a large number of typical cases of lymphadenitis and lymph node tuberculosis that have been treated by traditional Chinese medicine, which has verified the uniqueness of traditional Chinese medicine in the motherland.
