Hi Sandy. Have you made a doctor's appointment? The lymphatic system is all connected so there are minor infections and viruses that can cause node swelling in different parts of the body. You should get it checked out, though... just to make sure it isn't something more serious.

There's a mumps outbreak in our area right now. Did you know about that? I send notices out to the university community about it every week. It can sometimes cause swelling in glands other than the parotid glands. Get yourself to a doctor, woman! Hope you feel better soon.
