Think of lymph node clusters as your body’s neighborhood watch system. Found under the jaw and throughout your neck, these small organs act as filters, trapping harmful substances and producing white blood cells to fight infections and disease. If you have swollen lymph nodes under the jaw, it means that your immune system is on high alert and fighting off bacteria or a virus or responding to a specific injury or irritation in your mouth, teeth, or neck area.
