Swelling on both sides- about 2 inches below ear

Swelling on both sides- about 2 inches below ear

I recently notice swelling on my next below both of my ears.  The swelling on the right side is a bit larger than the swelling on the left.  It's doesn't hurt when I press on either of them, but I have recently been feeling bad (before the swelling started).  Is there any medicine I could get over the counter for this?  And what is the common diagnosis?  
Thanks.

Hey.
Well the doctor said it was "mono.."  So I'm pretty bumbed out about that.  I too was thinking that it was my lymph nodes.  How strange.  Thanks for your help!
