Suggest Treatment For Swollen Lymph Nodes Under The Jaw

Hi. I am a 29 year female, I eat a diet of fish, chicken, vegetables, fruit, whole grain bread, I drink plenty of water everyday as well as almost completely removing alcohol from my diet, (maybe one glass of wine every couple of days). My lymph nodes are swollen under my jaw and have been for two weeks and three days now. I also take 2,000 mg of vitamin C and drink tea every morning and night. I rarely consume sugary beverages or food and I have exhausted most sinus related home remedies without any relief. Any suggestions?

Hi..

Welcome to healthcare magic.
As you mentioned you have problem of swollen lymphnode that may be because of tooth infections or throat or ear problem...
Consult a ENT specialist for examination.
You have sinuse problem also..
Steam inhalation helpful..
Nasal decongestant can use..

Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems..
If needed than oral cavity examination for further diagnosis...
Proper antibiotics course helpful under doctor's suggestion..
Mention a size and consistency of lymphnode for further diagnosis...

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Thank you.
