Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 17 y/o daughter has two small lumps located in the soft area behind her jaw bone, These lumps are very close together, not on neck but under her jaw. these areas are hardened and tender to touch. no other symptoms at this time. She noticed them today.
Hi, It seems that she might be having enlarge tender lymph nodes on the area. It indicates that she might be having some infective focus in nearby area. Consult your doctor and get examined. She might require one course of antibiotic medicine. Ok and take care.
