Antibiotics for facial infection (l) worked,but now my left lymph node by lower jaw is very painful and i have a tension headache. bad? what can i do

Start by.....: Start by discussing this with the dentist treating you. You need to make sure the infection is truly gone, the cause treated, and there are no other dental problems that may be causing this. It may just take time for the lymph node to become non-tender. Reduces stress, relax, take some OTC headache medication.
