I am a 27 year old female with swollen lymph nodes behind my right ear and down into my neck.I have been told by a oral surgeon that it might be my molar teeth causing the swelling but I have no infection just some minor decay starting on one of the teeth.I have had these swollen glands for months now.I have no pain but they just feel funny almost like the swelling is pressing on something.The surgeon suggests pulling my molar teeth and then putting me on a antibiotic to see if that takes the swelling away and if not then he said we need to explore ohter options.Can you give me any suggestions?Thank you for your time.
