No: but you may be confusing them for your submandibular gland. Swollen lymph nodes can result from infection or rumors. Typically, infected lymph nodes will be somewhat painful due to inflammation. If you fell that ther are swollen for a while, you may want to see your doctor

Enlarged submandibular lymph nodes for about 6 weeks. US showed multiple straight prominent lymph nodes measuring 0.9 x 1.1 x 1.8 cm and 1.5 x 1.0 x 1.6 cm. CBC normal besides WBC (3.0 L). Could this be from 2nd covid shot which I had 2 months ago?
