What Causes Swollen Lymph Nodes In My Jaw/neck?

My lymph nodes are swollen in my jaw/neck area, my throat is sore and I had an abscess or blood blister on each side of my mouth just behind where my wisdom teeth used to be. I have sarcoidosis so I'm not sure if this is related or if I need to seek medical attention.

Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
Swollen lymph nodes can be due to infection in your wisdom tooth area.
I would suggest you to visit an oral surgeon for proper examination and treatment of the same.
Also, I would suggest you to visit a physician for treatment of sarcoidosis.
Hope my answer will help you.
