.The symptoms are consistent with a viral infection.

I am not sure of what you are refering to. While there are occipital (back of head) and post aricular (behind ear) lymph node groups none of these extend above the level of the ear.

Are you sure these are lymph nodes? .. the ones on the top of your head.

.It is worth seeing someone for a full workup.

.I, too, recently recovered from a sinus infection. Since I began feeling better 4 days ago, I have been getting lumps on the right side of my head following a pattern of about 3-4 inches above my ear and in a straight line across to the back of my head, and then down the back of my head. Lymph nodes are swollen in the back of my head, the back of my neck, and the side of the neck. Today, this path of lumps began burning and stinging. Please help.
