Lymph node: The lymphatic system as as a filtering system for infections, trapping pathogens to keep them from spreading.Cervical lymph nodes filter the entire he'd/upper neck area, so an URI, sinus infection, or enlarged tonsils/adenoids, can trigger node enlargement. So can decayed tweet, gum disease, or one of the many transient oral infections. Pro baby would be wise to have son's Dentist check.
