A member asked:
I have a sore throat and a swollen/painful gland under chin. is this normal? family has had a cold for about a week. is this a submental gland?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: A lymph node Nader the chin is a sub mental node. Lymph nodes commonly enlarge when fighting infections, so this common with a cold or flu and not something of concern.
