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 print by TEK IMAGE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, we witness a heartwarming moment during a paediatric examination. 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 quite common in children and often occurs due to minor infections. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this medical encounter. The young boy looks at ease, his face adorned with a smile that reflects trust in his physician's expertise. The doctor, an experienced professional with a warm demeanor, attentively examines the child's neck using her stethoscope. Glands or lymph nodes play a vital role in our body's immune system as they contain white blood cells responsible for combating invading micro-organisms. During an infection, these glands become more active and enlarge, resulting in tender lumps that can be felt under the skin around the neck. This image not only showcases compassionate healthcare but also highlights the significance of early diagnosis and treatment for childhood ailments. It serves as a reminder of how dedicated medical professionals work tirelessly to ensure children receive optimal care. With its focus on human connection and well-being rather than commercial interests, this powerful print from Science Photo Library encapsulates both the beauty and importance of paediatric medicine within our society today.
