What Causes Swollen Lymph Nodes?

Good morning, I have had swollen Lymph Nodes s above and behind my left ear and underneath my jaw (left side). My GP checked my throat and ears and there was no sign of infection, bloods were also taken and they came back fine. however, my wisdom teeth are currently pushing through and causing a dull discomfort in the back of my jaw. Is it possible that my incoming wisdom teeth are causing my lymph nodes to swell ?

Hi
thanks for HMC team
well, you shown your Lymph node to G.P. . Blood test are also normal .
But i want to ask some questions upon your Lymph node like what is the size of node? is it larger than a Pea ? Is it mobile or not? Is it in how many numbers?
Do FNAC ( Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology for Lymph node) Test , which will help you to treat your Lymph Node.
and show your teeth to a dentist.
