Answers:
Is the lump painful to touch.? It can your lymph nodes. They usually get swollen when there's an infection. It's a defense mechanism of your body. The lymph produces antibodies when activated by foreign bodies like bacteria or such.

It could be from your third molar coming out only if it has infection. Is it painful.? Is there an inflammation on the gums surrounding or covering the tooth.? Do you have fever.? If your answers are all yes, then it's probably your third molar that is causing the swelling of the lymph nodes.

If not, then it's another thing.

Do not worry, swelling of your lymph nodes means that your body is fighting the infection. Consult your doctor to be sure. There is also a possibility that it's a cystic lesion.

I wouldn't worry you are going to die.

It could be your lymph nodes swelling, due to an illness.

It wouldn't hurt to get it checked out though. Health Question & Answer
