Hello,
With respect to your description, cervical lymph nodes may be caused by upper respiratory tract infections, ear infection or sinus infection. Your symptoms may not be caused by smoking. I will suggest you see your doctor for throat, ears, and sinus exams. If symptoms are of infectious origin, appropriate treatment may be prescribed. In the meantime, you may take an anti-inflammatory like Advil.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mbuomboh Veranso
