Infected WisdomTooth: Good day;
  Sounds like classic infected wisdom tooth which requires extraction. Would believe partly erupted due to symptoms. Immediate visit to dentist. Take antibiotic and pain pills and have tooth removed at your convience.

Question 9

why do glands swell?

Accepted Answer

Healthy or not: Lymph glands ("nodes") draining infected areas enlarge because they are the battleground between the immune system and invaders and special immune cells are growing. If brief, it's nothing to worry about. Enlargement of an endocrine (like thyroid or adrenal) or exocrine (like salivary) is often a sign of illness.
