Hello, i have begun to get a swollen jaw right under my left ear. It s only on the left side and doesn t cause much pain. I have a weird sensation like tingling when i eat something on that side. My teeth don t hurt at all and yes i do have my wisdom teeth in and have had them since i was 18 years old. I am now 36. This is the first time this has occurred. I also sleep on my left side most of the time and was wondering if this could be a cause.
Hello dear you look like you are having parotid salivary glands walling, and there multiple causes for that you should know that there is systemic conditions like diabetes, causing disease, alcoholism, hepatic cirrhosis, gout, and myxoedema can cause painless swelling on the salivary glans also we put in mind mumps, it is self limiting viral infection, it can cause the same symptoms you have especially if you already took mumps vaccination, but in your mind if you had previously infected by mumps then it is very unlikely to get second infection finally, if your condition would not subside within 14 days then i recommend you to visit your doctor for clinical examination hope you all the healthiness
