Waite: If full course of antibiotics is taken with no results, then a consultation and examination is required to determine the cause of the swollen lymph nodes usually an infected area they draine, then proper antibiotics should be prescribed then..

See your PCP: Lymphadenitis or swollen lymph nodes due to viral or bacterial infection. The exact type of treatment depends on what type of infection has caused your lymph nodes. The treatment with antibiotics usually leads to a complete recovery. It may take several weeks for swelling to disappear. Rec.: see your pcp for further investigation.
