Lymph nodes due to tonsils?

Hello

I have two lymph nodes in each corner of my jaw which are both enlarged and probably ones the size or a grape and the other just a tad smaller, 

Thing is, my tonsils have been enlarged for months, i am getting them removed though very soon. My tonsils never go back down in size so im just wonder if this is the reason the lymph nodes in the corner of my jaw are enlarged??

Could this be a possibility?

  • Hello, and thank you for posting.

    I'm afraid I don't know if this is a possibility to why those lymph nodes are enlarged. It is probably best to talk to your GP or your hospital team about them. What I can say is if they are concerned they would investigate further to find the reason for the swellings.

    Take care, and hopefully you will know more soon.

    Sarah.
