My daughter is 9 months, we had vaccination on 16th Jan and after that from 19th Jan she was having fever, as climate change doctor prescribed her "Calpol Drops" but as the fever continued doctor advised to give her Antibiotic "Flemiclav" but as the fever increased to 103� - 104� F, we got her blood test and got her admitted as got a LUMP on left cervical area. We did sonography and the report says *"MULTIPLE ENLARGE MATTED lymph nodes IN THE LEFT UPPER cervical REGION"* (IN THE REGION OF SWELLING). We are very scared by this, as doctors is asking for TB to Cancer in family history and to get Biopsy test done. My concern is my baby is only 9 months old, should I go for biopsy? And biopsy will be painful to her after the anesthesia, when she is conscious. Request you to reply, I will be highly obliged.

Matted lymph nodes with fever definitely need further investigation. I don't think there s any link with vaccination and the nodes. I would go with biopsy. With regards to pain, I prefer having right diagnosis and the pain is temporary sir. Hope everything goes well. Take care.
