Will an infection in the teeth cause lymph node to swell?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: An infection of the teeth can cause the lymph nodes to swell. I would suggest seeing a dentist as soon as possible because things will only get worse and you could end up needing a stay in the hospital because the swelling can prevent you from breathing.
