Lymphadenopathy in children is common and usually benign. How can we distinguish between harmless reactive lymphadenopathy and more sinister causes which might require treatment or further evaluation? Dr Phil Wylie takes us through the history and examination, showing us what to look out for so we can reassure parents all is well, or pick up cases which call for further action. Red flag features include nodes over 2cm and growing, supraclavicular and popliteal nodes nodes, fever, weight loss, night sweats, pain and itching, as well as hepatosplenomegaly, pallor and easy bruising.
