When do swollen glands after virus reduce?

We had a rough December with my toddler bringing home two separate viruses from preschool within the space of 3 weeks, everyone in the house managed to get a version of each virus. Both times I ended up with white covered tonsils and felt really really rough.

Towards the end of the second virus, so about two weeks ago now, I noticed a really hefty gland swollen under my chin on one side, it felt like the size of a plum, it was really big. I’d say it’s probably a bit smaller now but definitely still there, is this in the realms of normal for it to slowly reduce? I feel fine now and have no symptoms.
