Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Right-sided Swelling And Tenderness In The Neck After Vomiting?
After a difficult vomiting session, that lasted about 7 hours, my neck and jaw have become swollen and tender to the touch (but only on the right side). Swallowing is uncomfortable, though not as bad as a usual throat infection. There is a hard lump on my neck near the throat or esophagus as well. Is this cause for serious concern? Or are these signs of strain and pulled muscles?
