Dr. Zhang Mingping
Cervical lymphadenopathy may result from upper respiratory tract infections or gingivitis; it may also be caused by bacterial infection of the cervical lymph nodes. Additionally, tuberculosis or malignancy with cervical lymph node metastasis cannot be ruled out. It is essential to visit a reputable Grade A, Class 3 hospital for appropriate diagnostic tests to determine the exact cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, ensure adequate rest and avoid “heat-inducing” foods.
