[|Human|] Hi my 5y old daughter has had a lump in the right side of her neck for a while. Tonight I found two at both sides at the base of her skull and a smaller one now in left side of neck. The right side is two peas size. She had a bad flue. Would that influence it or cause it ? Do I need to take her to see a dr.? She tends to easily get colds or flue and she takes a while to get over it. Would it influence it if her biological mom was a drug addict and alcoholic ? Christina
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She has history of some infection.  So it's causing lymph node enlargement.  She may have cervical lymph node enlargement. It is mostly due to reactive hyperplasia.  She should take a course of antibiotics. If she doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
