My new puppy has a swollen lymph node.....?!?!?!??!

Anyone have this with their dog?

The vet said it could be from just a cold......or worse. I am so nervous and worried about him. FH is probably freaking out with him right now.

We got antibiotics for him and he has to return next week to see if it goes down, but I am still worried, I hate waiting for things like this. If it doesn't go down next week he has to have a biopsy of the lymph node....

Anyone have this problem? Please tell me it will be okay.......FH will be heartbroken if there's something really wrong.

Oh, and the vet just called and said he has roundworms, totally normal, but that just adds to it.

Swollen Lymph nodes are symptoms of TONS of things, as I understand it. I wouldn't worry too much until you know what Puppy has.

Swollen lymph nodes can be so many things. Most likely the puppy just has an infection.
