Paediatric examination. Doctor checking a 7-year-old boys glands to see if they are swollen. Swelling of the glands (lymphadenopathy) is very common in children and can be caused by a minor infection. The glands, or lymph nodes, are part of the bodys immune system and contain white blood cells that attack invading micro-organisms. During an infection the glands enlarge as they become more active, producing warm, tender lumps that can be felt under the skin around the neck

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photo print, we witness a crucial moment in paediatric medicine. A caring doctor is seen checking the glands of a 7-year-old boy to determine if they are swollen. Swelling of the glands, known as lymphadenopathy, is a common occurrence in children and often results from minor infections. The glands or lymph nodes play a vital role in our immune system by housing white blood cells that combat invading micro-organisms. During an infection, these glands become more active and enlarge, forming warm and tender lumps under the skin around the neck. With a gentle smile on his face, the doctor attentively examines the young patient using medical equipment such as a stethoscope. The female physician accompanying him adds another layer of expertise to ensure accurate diagnosis. This snapshot captures not only a routine examination but also showcases compassion and dedication towards providing quality healthcare for children. Both doctors demonstrate their commitment to general practice while specializing in paediatrics. The image features individuals from diverse backgrounds working together harmoniously – an Asian male doctor alongside a Caucasian female physician – highlighting inclusivity within healthcare settings. TEK IMAGE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY has masterfully captured this significant moment where medical expertise meets genuine care for patients' well-being. This photograph serves as an inspiring reminder of how dedicated professionals strive to diagnose and treat childhood ailments effectively while putting smiles on their young patients' faces.
