Sinus infection and swollen lymph node
I've had an incredibly stuffy nose for a few days, and as I was feeling around my neck, I noticed a swollen lymph node in the submandibular region on my right side. Left side was normal. I went to the doctor and they said that I have a sinus infection and the swollen node was caused from that. The swollen node is semi hard, not rock hard, and it is moveable. The lymphnode doesn't hurt at all. Is the swollen node caused from the sinus infection, or is it some other underlying issue?
