I have a swollen lymph node right below the corner of my jaw

(Not a Health Question?)

I have a swollen lymph node right below the corner of my jaw bone. I was prescribed antibiotics when I first noticed it. It first appeared over a month ago, and was painful. After the antibiotics, the swelling went away and it felt like a pea. Now it has grown larger, and I feel more swollen tissue around it but it is NOT painful. Any idea what it could be from? I do have back teeth near the spot that need serious dental work, but again...no pain at all.
