Generally, the disease starts quickly, there will be fever, swollen lymph nodes will be soft, and there will be tenderness. Of course, the surface is generally smooth, and there is no adhesion. In this case, it can be treated in time to fight infection, such as oral cephalosporins, penicillin, Macrolide antibiotics and so on can subside. If the condition is serious, lymphadenitis can develop into an abscess, which can be accompanied by symptoms of systemic infection.
