Please answer my few questions. If possible attach few images and reports.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Alli.

Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic.
This is Dr. Priyanka Tiwari answering your query.

I have read your query and understand your concern. As far as submandibular gland region swelling is concerned this can be due to salivary stones, enlarged lymph nodes, tooth infection, gums infection or remaining root of the extracted tooth.

Can you please upload an image of teeth and gum of swelling region that would be helpful for me to give you a proper diagnosis.

Please answer me few questions :
1- Do you have pain in gums or teeth associated with swelling?
2- Does size of your swelling increases or decrease?
3- Does the swelling is present under the tongue?

Awaiting the details to comment further.

Thanks
