My 17 year old son has enlarged lymph node and an enlarged thyroid. went to urgent care and they said viral? should i be concerned about his thyroid. he has a cold sore too. should he have more checked?

Viral infection could have caused lymph node to swell. I suspect thyroid gland has enlarged gradually before he developed current acute illness. Have him evaluated by his PCP.
