My child left cheek swollen & it's just below ear. From last 4 days provided antibiotics through veins via Vigo. As per pulse culture, WBC count increased. I am in touch with General Physician & E&T doctor & according to them provided Antibiotics. But little bit worried for my child because swollen part now become more harder as compared to Past. Is it Normal issue or some serious concern is there? What best I can do for my Child, Is there any need to meet any Oncologist? Child Age is 2.5 Years & weight 10 Kg & in recent no decrease of weight. He doesn't like to eat, in full day very small food like 2 Banana, 1 Omlet & milk he take that may be the reason for low immunity.

Hello, Your concerned is well justified, but somewhere you are overthinking. Let doctor treat me for a while and the hardness of lump does not necessarily mean it is carcinogenic. Let me complete the course of antibiotic and discuss your concern with his paedrician, if needed he/she will automatically refer you for further indepth investigation. Relax, don't get stressed out.
