Those are lymph nodes. Because she has a cold, the nodes are inflamed and working overtime. Nothing to be worried about. They'll go back down again, though if she's slender, they may be slightly detectable even when they're normal sized.

They are just enlarged lymph glands, swollen due to infection. Cold, upper respiratory tract infections can cause that.
Nothing to be worried about.

It could be swollen glands but I would call your doctor immediately and have her checked out.
