Several things: Not mentioned if the symptoms have all been there about the same length of time.It is possible that they are not related and could be separate events.Also it's possible that they are related.The swollen lymph node can be related to any infection and therefore could be related to either the sore throat, the "infected" canine or both.Have tooth checked out and treatedfirst to see if it is the source.

Dental Infection: You could have some sort of dental abscess, or some periodontal problem. See you dentist for an x-ray and gum/periodontal evaluation. Some jaw infections can become serious if they spread, so don't delay.

Infection: You may possibly have an infection developing in the area and should have your dentist test the teeth on the right side for possible nerve or gum issues.
