[/INST] Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.It looks like pyoderma of scalp , but fungal infection of scalp needs to be ruled out . Lymphadenopathy is secondary to infection that will resolve with time once the infection is under control. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.Wishing  your son good health.•     DISCLAIMER: - All the information provided here is for information purpose only   , it is not a substitute for the advice of a physician after physical examination , it is not intended to replace your relationship with your doctor.
