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 print captured by TEK IMAGE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, we witness a paediatric examination that showcases the compassionate care provided to young patients. The image portrays a doctor attentively checking the glands of a 7-year-old boy, ensuring they are not swollen. Swelling of these lymph nodes is common in children and often indicates a minor infection. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the significance of these glands within our immune system. Acting as guardians, they house white blood cells that combat invading micro-organisms. During an infection, their activity increases, causing them to enlarge and form warm and tender lumps around the neck area. Both doctor and patient exude warmth and trust in this scene. The doctor's smile reflects her dedication to providing quality healthcare while putting the child at ease during his examination. This moment highlights the importance of building strong relationships between medical professionals and their young patients. The setting takes place in a hospital or clinic environment where cutting-edge medical equipment can be seen nearby - symbolizing advancements in pediatric care. The diversity represented by an Asian female physician attending to a Caucasian boy emphasizes inclusivity within healthcare. This image captures not only a routine check-up but also represents the broader field of pediatrics dedicated to diagnosing and treating childhood conditions effectively. It serves as a reminder of how crucial it is for doctors specializing in pediatrics (paediatricians) to ensure children receive optimal medical attention from an early age.
