    Sounds like you have a minor infection/illness like a cold or something and that's why it is swollen.

    I have multiple swollen lymph nodes for months now and not sure why. I saw my reg Dr, ENT, dermo and an oncologist lol (i wanted a variety of opinions) - and they all think mine are swollen from some bad acne I had on my face lately.

    Basically what I learned from all of them ^ the only red flag with swollen lymph nodes is size. Pea size is completely normal, if it gets to be the size of a golf ball then you need to be concerned. Just keep an eye on it and if it gets bigger then go back to your Dr.
