Parotid cyst


[Sy...]

Recommended Posts

Hello all. Has anyone here had a cyst on your parotid gland?  I see an ENT this week and it has me pretty nervous. From what I've read it says surgery is the best method for removal. I'm more worried about what this cyst contains inside it. I'm very anxious waiting around to see the ENT at the end of the week. Has anyone here had this experience? It's located by my right ear and is the size of a pea. Thanks

I've had several infections of my right parotid gland. They hurt quite a bit and swell up the side of your face. No cyst though. Is that different from an infection? I think my infections must have left scar tissue, because sometime I can feel the side of my face get a little swollen so I have to squeeze my cheek to squeeze the spit out of the gland into my mouth. The infections happened before benzo use though, so I don't think they're related.
