Avatar n tn My wife had an infected tooth and now she has a swollen gland under her jaw bone. Any ideas?
Avatar m tn The glands in my neck (under my jaw) have been swollen for about 4 months now. They have never really hurt. But i've been getting sick (mainly just symptoms of a cold. Runny nose, post nasal drip or a headache a few times. And once i had a sore throat) off and on the whole time. Though, when i do get better i still have mucus that i'm hawking up throughout the day (its usually clear or bright yellow).
Avatar f tn no sign of bite, no center as in a boil, just generalized pink blotchy look, but whole left jaw is still swollen and somewhat painful. the skin is not swollen and red like a bite or boil might be. it's more like under the skin. no clue what could have brought it on. any idea what this is? should we see a doctor? it's not changing much at this point (3 days). thank you!

Avatar f tn Tonight I noticed there were swellings under each side of her jaw. She is eating well and appears to be putting on weight. I am giving her the prescribed vitamins twice a day and she rests often as he told me. Is there reason to be concerned about the swollen glands? Should I take her back to the vet before the next visit 10/15?
Avatar f tn m not sure, I read that submandibular salivary glands are the size of walnut and lie right below the jaw on each side, is this true? In addition these are my test. HIV PCR DNA/HIV antibody via ICMA at 17 days and 45 days post exposure.(NEGATIVE) HIV antibody via ICMA 9.5 weeks,12 weeks, and 13 weeks post exposure.(NEGATIVE) I was able to track down the csw and had her take a home access HIV test 10.5 weeks post exposure and it was also NEGATIVE.
Avatar f tn but now iam developing symptoms like diharea,pain in armpit,under jaw(also some glands are swell under jaw).is iam got any infection.
Avatar n tn they dont pain and hurt at all, they are only found under your jaw and armpit and groin area. if they are swellling, they are easily felt and seen, so dont search for them. i had the same fears of my nodes, i found one under my armpit, was like 2-3 cms big and like a hill. imagine how i felt when i saw it, i ran to my doctor and i had ultra sound for it, it was a MUSCLE that was broken with me long time ago when i was practicing. so dont look for them.
Avatar m tn My glands in my neck (just under jaw bone and down side of neck) have had a dull ache for the last week or so. i havent acquired a sore throat and feel fine in myself although sometime have had headaches as well. Today the right side of my groin has started a dull ache as well...could these be connected due to the glands in the areas... no other glands appear to aching (armpit and stomach) I have just been taking ibuprofen for the time being.
Avatar n tn Hi, A week ago today I met a girl who I kissed, not for a prolonged amount of time but open mouthed. I, at the time, had a small ulcer or bite on the inside of my cheek. Last night I put on a hooded jumper and felt a pain under the right side of my jaw. upon feeling it noticed a swollen and quite painful gland. I went to sleep and woke up with it quite a lot more swollen, and also two or three quite heavily swollen and sore on the left side as well.
Avatar n tn do the bumps on your tounge have white circles or outlines around them. Have your swollen lymph glands under your neck resolved themselves or are they still kill you. I have the same thing I've been researching this for years! I'd love to talk more about this but there's so much to say. Do u have a screen name on AIM or yahoo? I need a friend in this!
Avatar n tn Since then, I have experienced moving discomfort from my left ear, to the angle of my jaw on the left side, and now stiffness / general discomfort in my neck under my jaw. My throat is pink, but tonsils are swollen. The left side of my tonsil wall is wavy, instead of the normal smooth. The top of one of the "waves" on the left side has a small white crest that looks like a cancor sore. The first nurse told me that I had Tonsillitis and to try to find some anti-biotics.
Avatar m tn The glands on my neck just under my jaw line are visibly pulsating on both sides. I have seen plenty of posts about swollen glands but not about pulsating ones. Would the pulsating possibly be a sign of infection like swollen glands are? Any help with this would be great.

975514 tn?1324997938 My glands are always swollen under my jaw, which makes my neck and ears hurt all of the time. Would this have anything to do with my thyroid? Should I bring this up to the Dr. at my endo appt. next week or will I sound like a weirdo if I do?
Avatar f tn It caused an imblance in my system and ever since that a gland on both sides under my jaw swell during the day.. Eating or not eating it does not matter. I can not eat carbs or sugary foods without compounding the problem. I see the doctor on Monday July 7th. I have seen him once before and he said Virus can get in those glands and stay for a long peroid of time, massage and use warm face cloths on them. When they swell it is painful.
Avatar f tn and some times i have swelling at the jawbone area with pain,itching,sometime a yellowish strand of what looks like infection that comes from the inside of my jaw,when this swelling and pain occurs at my jaw.i was once told i have stones in my saliva glands when i went to the emergency room with swollen glands under my tongue and that same yellow looking discharge that i see when my jaw swells,could this all be related or could this be a more serious problem.
Avatar f tn Lymph nodes can be found in a variety of places in the body including the neck and under the jaw and chin. These can become swollen from infection, inflammatory conditions, abscess, or even cancer. When swelling appears suddenly and is painful, injury or an infection ( which is the most common cause) may be considered. On the other hand, enlargement that comes on gradually and painlessly may, in some cases, result from malignancy.
Avatar f tn Any ways fast forward to spring 2016 I noticed I had one tonsil larger than the other and some swollen glands under my jaw near this tonsil but not on the other side. I waited it out and then caught a BAD case of Tonsilitus on both tonsils and then in summer of this year I caught two mild cases of Tonsilitus again but only on my left side.
Avatar f tn since then she has developed sores in mouth like canker sores, she is cutting molers and dentist said mouth not large enough to support new teeth so they are acting like braces. glands along jaw line are swollen and hard both sides but not on top of jaw like mumps. tylenol and ibuprofen are not working. she is going to doctor this afternoon different one. she is not eating or drinking much.
Avatar n tn For the past week, my neck is tight under my ears and jaw and under my armpits. Today I noticed the gland in my right groin is rock hard and the size of a large pea. I cannot feel the left groin gland. It does not hurt to touch but it makes it uncomfortable to sit and have some minor testicular pain. I have been having night sweats on and off since July. To top it off, I am married. My wife has not had any symptoms but I am afraid I gave her something. Please help. Questions: 1.
