Lymph node swelling
So since a week there was itching near my cheekbone, i found out while itching theres a pea size bump felt when palpated below the cheekbone(on left side only, that was not present on right side).
Upon seeing the anatomy i feel its the buccinator lymph node which has swelled up.. i have a impacted wisdom tooth on upper side on left side too, i felt a little discomfort on gums/parotid papilla too, are they related? Please hep me scared if its anything serious. It doesn't hurt(in the sense pain or anything), sometimes that side feels tense just like when you laugh much and your cheeks hurt, like that.. please help me what should I do, and is that anything serious?
