Suggest Medication For Strep Throat And Enlarged Lymphnode

I recently had strep throat 2 weeks ago. I noticed an enlarged lymphnode on the right side (most of my sore throat was also on the right side). The lymph node has yet to decrease in size but my symptoms had been gone for the past week. How long before the lymph node should disappear again?

Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The swollen lymphnode can be secondary to the throat infection. Nothing to worry. It's common during any infection in the head and neck region. It will take2 to 3 weeks to become normal.
I hope I have answered your query. if you have any queries reply me back. take care.
