Is Enlarged Taste Buds Be Cause Of Swollen Lymph Node?
I have swollen taste buds on way back of tongue as well as on the sides of my tongue. I have had more irritation in my mouth on my right side and my right lymph node seems more swollen than my left. Can the irritation from my enlarged taste buds be the cause of my lymph nodes being a bit swollen?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the enlarged taste buds what you are telling is nothing but circumvallate papillae, the lymphnode enlargement could not be because of this..it can be because of any tooth infection or gum infection..consult a oral physician for complete examination..i hope my answer will help you...take care..
