my five year old daughter woke up yesterday morning complaining of a headache and showed me these lumps she had... one behind the left ear and another one at the base of her crainal, i called the doctor and took her in and she said that her lympnodes were enlarged but she had no sign of infection, advised me to being her back in if the got bigger more than 1 inch. when i got home i found another one on the side of her head. She went to sleep (this was about 2pm) and it's way out of her norm to sleep during the day... i had to wake her up about 6pm last night... she went back to sleep about 9pm and woke up at 1:45 this morning complaing of her throat hurting and said she couldn't swallow. I looked at her throat with a flash light and it was swollen pretty big, i immediatley called her physican again to see if i should take her to the ER and she said no. what advise can you give me? she fell sunday at hit her face but i wouldnt think that had any reasoning behind this... THANKS.
