No need to be concerned. You may feel the node every couple of weeks, if the lymph gland doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, or lose weight, you should see a doctor. Wish you good health!

Ive had two swollen lymph nodes in the submandibular area for a month. CBC showed a low WBC (3.0). Could this be related? If so what are the potential causes?
