What Is The Treatment Of Swollen Lump On Jaw ?

I have had swollen lymph nodes under jaw for over a year, although right hand side has started to swell more over last 5 months. I have itchy ears and itchy vagina over a year also I now have a cold which involves constant coughing and I wake up with a very dry throat. What could this most likely be as I have been to get my lymph node under left jaw tested and results came back 98% clear? Please help

thanks for your query, the cause for the lymphnode enlargement should be ruled out first.since you are telling its from one year it is a chronic lesion...rule out ant teeth infection causing this or it can be inflammatory lymphadenopathy.. consult your oral physician and get yourself examined about the type of lymphnode, size, consistency and fixity of the lymphnodes to rule out various bacterial, fungal, viral infection or tumors causing lymphnode enlargement..and get FNAC and ultrasound done for the enlarged lymphnodes..i hope my answer will help you..take care..
