How do you check lymph nodes around jaw? Do you press up under jaw very far? Or do you just feel the surface? I googled and couldnt find a clear answer. Thanks in advance.

How do you check lymph nodes around jaw?

You don't because there's no reason to do so.

I agree that there's no point checking your jaw lymph nodes.

If you probe the area enough, you WILL find lymph nodes. You will be able to feel them. Which will only prove that you have lymph nodes.

If you have an enlarged lymph node, it will be visually obvious. Mine was poking through the skin, no feeling around required.

Thank you. I did think that I had felt something, but I had to press up under my jaw. I'll ignore it. It's not sore & I cant feel it if I gently push.
