Hi I know it is very worrying when your child is ill. My Son is 6 now and two years ago he kept getting recurring ear infections, one day we noticed that his ears looked lop-sided and he had a lump the size of an orange behind his right ear. He was sent to hospital straight away and we later found out he has mastoiditis, and has now had four operations to try and clear up the infection.
Because of the infection, his lymph nodes were up.

Try not to worry i know it's easier said than done, I hope he gets better soonx.

thank you he is being screened for infection and lymphomas at the mo! very scary! hope your son is ok! all the best for u! and thank you for your reply! x

It was my pleasure, it's nice to know there are people around who are going through similar anxieties, and that your not on your own.

My son will have to undertake further ops as he gets older, for now he's a lot better thank you.

Take care x
