My DS is 20 months and last week he was on antibiotics that he finished on Friday for an ear infection. Iv noticed today he has a lump between sort of his neck and jaw line. You can only really see it when he looks up/or at certain angles. I’m going to take him to the drs to get checked but before my mind spirals, has anyone else experienced this? Was it just following an infection? Thank you

My youngest had these loads, up until about aged six. It’s very very normal post infection. In fact she had them without illness. Probs when she was fighting something off.
