Hi,
from history it seems that you might be having some infective focus or some chronic infection in your mouth giving rise enlarge lymph nodes in sub mandibular region.
Consult oral surgeon and get examined for infective focus in mouth like oral mucosa, teeth, gumd, throat etc.
After finding out the cause line of treatment can be decided.
Ok and take care.
