How To Treat Lymph Gland Chain Around The Ear?
I have a lymph gland chain around my ear but the doctor i'm seeing will not do anything.. he said i need a mri but i can not have one and he did give me doxycyclean only because it was the only thing he said he could do. Im not sure what to do at this point? Any suggestions would be great.
