Hi!
A small, localized lymph node swelling under the jaw is often due to minor infections in the throat, tonsil, or nearby teeth. Since it’s been 5 days and you don’t have other symptoms like fever, pain, or redness, it may resolve spontaneously.
Apply warm compress twice daily.
Maintain oral hygiene and salt-water gargles.
Avoid touching the area repeatedly.
If the swelling increases, becomes painful, or lasts more than 10–14 days, you’ll need a short course of antibiotics and possibly an ultrasound of the neck to rule out reactive lymphadenitis or dental origin.
I’ll be happy to review your case in detail, check the exact location, and guide you on whether medication or further tests are needed.
