My PANCA CANCA ANA and Anti DsDNA test came back negative. There is lot of pain in right ear and around and jaw line skin seems thick. also the ball like gland just below jaw on right side seems swollen and painful along with right cheeks and behind the ear.
It has been 14 days since first swelling appeared. then it decreased and now seems like its coming back. Can mumps take this long? I am really worried.
Thanks, XXXXXXX
I would request you to consult a General Surgeon immediately
