Hi,
First we must know that lymphnodes are not directly get infected but from local sources/regional sources. In your case spot on the throat may be the culprit . the node pain and enlargement are secondary to some infection. We should find out the source and get rid of symptoms. Get a dental opinion also.
Avoid drinking cold/ cold exposure/Chemical exposure.
proper history will be helpful. Consult your physician.
