Suggest Remedies For Swelling And Tenderness In Parotid Gland

I am currently challenging a food allergy (milk protein) by eliminating milk proteins in my diet. Symptoms such as fatigue, tendonitis, migraine, eczema are disappearing. I do have another symptom that I am puzzled about and it is clearing also. The parotid duct inside my left cheek is "blocked" (swollen, with a white head) and I have tenderness in the parotid gland and popping in my ear with loud, sudden noises. Is this "normal"? I have been using ice compresses to reduce swelling, and trying lemons. Any other suggestions?

Looking into your history I can say you are suffering from parotid gland infection or parotitis. For this you have to take CAP AMPOXIN 500 mg three times daily or tab cefixime 200 mg twice daily after meals with tab combiflam or tab ibugesic-plus three times daily for pain and tenderness with tab rantac or cap omez twice daily empty stomach. Continue ice application as it is helpful in reducing the swelling and tenderness also.
