Can a lymph node under my jaw swell because I've been touching it a lot? I've been doing this for a few days now and I'm getting really worried. Could my habit of touching be causing this swelling?

Accepted Answer

Yes, continuous touching or irritating a lymph node can cause it to swell. It is important to avoid touching or pressing on the swollen lymph node.

You may be experiencing some complications related to your history of smoking. The presence of blood in your sputum, especially with a history of smoking, raises concerns for potential lung issues.

Additionally, to help with the gastric symptoms and burping, you can take Esomeprazole 40mg once daily before breakfast. It is also important to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. If the symptoms persist or worsen, further investigations such as a CT scan of the chest may be necessary to rule out any underlying issues.
