My neck lymph nodes are in sizes 12*6 & 12*7 and i have itchy skin & some pain in neck&ear& burning tongue, an ent dr gave me metronidazole, why?

Swollen lymph: You may have an infection and that is why you have the other symptoms you mentioned. Without seeing that would be my opinion as to why the Metronidazole as it is medication used particularly for anaerobic bacteria and protozoa.
