Answer 1

The nurse's best course of action for an 11-year-old youngster with many tenders & swollen lymph nodes is to let the child participate in the conversations.

Including the youngster in the conversation would help to relax and divert attention from Tender, uncomfortable nodes that develop and spread within a short period, usually as a result of an inflammatory condition in the region where the lymph nodes drain. The presence of lymphoma or leukemia is occasionally seen in a patient having tender, quickly expanding lymphadenopathy.

One of the most frequent causes of enlarged lymph nodes, including those that may be felt in the neck, is upper respiratory infections.
