Sore lymph nodes

by a_tad_bit_worried, Feb 16, 2009 11:50AM
Hi there,

I am curious about the severity of painful lymph nodes.  They are painful, and somewhat enlarged passed their regular size, but they are not massive.
Can lymph nodes be set off by ear problems.  I have had troubles in the past with my ears, namely my right; it has had a bump inside of it for quite some time now (years) and it becomes painful to touch with a q-tip.
Also, I have had aches that run down from my ear to my throat, which come and go.  
Furthermore, inside my mouth, at the back-right side, becomes itchy from time to time as does that same ear.
Is this an ear infection...because I have been in to a few doctors now concerning my ears and they say that there is nothing wrong... but these bumps, itches, and pains arn't normal.

But, yes, I was just wondering if there is a link between my nodes and my ears.

Yes, ear infections can cause swollen glands, but this question really belongs in the ear nose and throat forum, not here.
