Small swelling on lymph node and phlegm
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymph node and phelg: Assuming the lymph node is in the neck or head area with phlegm is sounds like you have some sort of upper respiratory tract infection. If the phlegm isn't discolored - probably not bronchitis. I would monitor the situation - a high fever or worsening cough or badly discolored mucus may be a sign of a worsening infection.
