What Is The Cause For Swelling Of The Lymph Nodes Under My Ear Along The Jaw Line?
My left lymph nodes under my ear along my jaw line swelled noticably. It went away. Then suddenly my right jaw swelled up within minutes and includes the side of my jaw next to my ear. The swelling is hard as a rock and very visible I do not have a fever, no pain, just pressure.
Hi, that is nothing but lymph node called jugulo diagastric lymph node. That swell if there is any underlying throat infection. In acute infection there will be pain. If its chronic infection, or on and off infection then , there will be swelling but no pain. If there is no pain or fever then dont worry at all it will not trouble you.
