A member asked:
I feel a lump where my submandibular gland is on the left side under my jaw. should i be able to feel my submandibular gland?

It is more likely that you are feeling a small lymph node rather than the submandibular gland itself. If you have no other symptoms whatsoever, then I would not be concerned about it. If it is a change and it is persistent, then you should see your doctor for further evaluation. Good luck.
