What Causes Small Lumps Along The Jawline?

I have small lumps along jawline. I had an untreated back molar which was cracked for 4yrs. No lumps on jaw until about a year ago. I've tried many supplements and watched my diet. Is there something OTC that can dissolve the jawline lumps closest to ear? on both sides.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having chronic lymphadenitis due to chronic infection in your cracked molar.
Consult dentist and get examined.
Root canal treatment or extraction of molar will give you relief from your enlarged lymph nodes.
Ok and take care.
