Hi,

* As per my surgical experience, the issue of swelling below the jawline indicate lymph node or salivary gland enlargement involving submandibular region particularly.

* An ultrasound of the local part with doppler evaluation helps greatly for the final diagnosis and further management guidelines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
