[FatMike006]

hello, i have a swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck, before it started i had this burning right at the bottom of the throat, it would come and go yesterday and now i have swollen gland on the left side of my neck and its right under my jawline it is a little hard, does anyone know what it could be ? and if it's serious ? or should i just wait a few days and see if the swelling goes down? and also is there any possible causes of it?

I just felt a small swollen gland under the left side of my neck.  I went to see an ENT quickly, I was at work when this happen.  The doctor has told me I have submandibular gland Infection.  I am to take this medicine for two week to cause the swelling to go down, it not he's going to do a CAT scan.
