Hello,
Enlarged glands may be due to Infection in the oral cavity or throat. You have to use at least 2-3weeks for a response.
Please rule out is it due to acid reflux or oral infection. Get an endoscopy may give a clue.
Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
