Hello docs. i was wondering can tonsil stones cause swelling of glands under the chin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Lymph node's in the neck are associated with various parts of the mouth. The tonsils drain into the lymph nodes in the upper part of the neck on the sides not under the chin. Most often the lymph nodes under the chin enlarge because infections around the front of the mouth both inside and outside or the front teeth.
