A member asked:
How long will it take for lymph node to go down after strep is cleared up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymph node: It may take up to 1 to 3 weeks for the swollen lymph node to subside after you are done with antibiotics. If the lymph node is still bigger and painful then, the patient needs to be seen.
