My Daughter every now and again has a swollen right cheek she was in hospital overnight a few months ago and they took bloods they came back normal they said it was because she had slight flathead which makes it look different but some days she looks fine and other days it's swollen and red. I'm just worried its something more serious

Dentist 's  Response
Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
It looks that she is having some kind of infection, either an infected tooth or infection of salivary gland, better that once you should visit a dentist and get a full mouth x - ray done, as it will reveal the area of infection.
Hope it will help you.
