A member asked:

Painful swollen lymph node under my left jaw. no fever or cold.should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't Goad That Node: Not usually. This happens, then they go away.The worst thing you can do is keep fooling with it.Estimate the size then leave it alone for at least one week,prefer- ably two,then check it again. Bigger?Smaller?Same? Less tender?More tender?Then decide if you need to see your doctor. If getting visibly bigge or gets more painful before then,or more lumps appear or other symptoms come-up, go sooner.
