I had a swelling in my nodes in my neck and it was down to the tooth which I had removed. If you are in doubt contact your oncology team. They will be able to advise you what to do. Good luck xx

You must get it checked out. You are probably right in thinking its your tooth but only by getting it checked will you be able to rest easy. Good luck. Caroline xx

I had a tooth infection a few years ago which reached the nerve and resulted in swelling around nodes in the neck. Do get it checked, a good dental x ray will be a start but I wouldn't hesitate to contact your oncology team as well. Best wishes.

I agree with the others. Talk with your cancer team.
