Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The enlarged lymphnodes and tenderness over the lymphnodes can be secondary to sinus infection. The other possible cause can be because of any teeth infection. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to get the sinus infection treated.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
