Swollen Parotid and possibly the Tonsillar gland
I felt sore on the right side of my face when I washed it last night and this morning it was a hard lump, some swelling and also sore at base of my ear...not like blown up but very tender and swollen....
Hi @LucyBell, you probably won't settle until you know for sure what it is. It may be a mild infection I'm the gland or nothing or something but looking at Google and a quick visit to a weekend dr is not the answer.
Phone the regular GP, explain your stress about it because of your bc diagnosis and see if they can arrange an appointment so you can get them to check it out or get a referral for a scan. You could also phone the oncologist and advise your situation too.
Take care
