My 5 year old daughter has big bumps on the back of her head all of the sudden???

My daughter was just diagnosed with strep throat, and now there are several big bumps under her hair on the back of her head. She has not bumped her head at all, so I am wondering what might cause this? Could it be swollen lymph nodes from the infection? Are there even lymph nodes on the back of the head, or just in the neck? Please, someone let me know if this is a common thing or if I need to take her in to the doctor.

Are you feeling them on her skull? If that is the case, there are no lymph nodes there and you should probably get it checked out if they do not go down soon or get worse. However, on the back on the head, towards the sides on the neck where it connects to the skull are some lymph nodes.
