Gland inflammation caused by eating Posted: 03-17-08 20:05pm
Hi, I am having a gland located to the
right along under my jaw that is swelling
every time I eat. The swelling goes down
about an hour after I'm finished eating. I
have no food allergies that I know of. But
after searching food allergy symptoms
online, I don't believe that is what is
causing this swelling. It first occurred
about 2 months ago. It happened
consistently for about a week, then just
stopped. Now it has started it up again.
It is not, and has never been, painful.
But just very bothersome. Can any relate?
Or help me??

This sounds like the same gland i guess it
would be, that i have a problem with
sometimes. one night it just all of a
sudden became swollen to maybe the size of
a bouncy ball i would say. there was no
pain at all. and it later went down. and
now every once in a great while , usually
if i eat , it swells up sometimes.
I have no idea what it could be , i only
just started to look it up a little
tonight and found this post. this is the
first example i have found so far of
someone having the same problem.
