A member asked:
I've had swollen submandibular nodes for years. can swollen nodes cause jaw pain? one node had needle biopsy years ago. they told me not to worry.

Try another visit: Submandibular glands can be enlarged for many reasons and several are quite benign. If you are having jaw pain as well, I would consider getting checked by an oral maxillofacial surgeon or at least another dentist to exam you and confirm this is nothing to worry about and does not require treatment
