A member asked:
Is it possible for a dental infection to cause swollen lymph nodes under the arm?

See a doctor: It is very unlikely but if you have an infected tooth than you need to see a dentist. You must also see a doctor for your swollen lymph nodes.

Swollen lymph nodes: Not likely to be from tooth infection. You should check this out with your family doctor to see if it is a problem.
