I suffer chronic parotits. I have problems and feel pain when swallow and my neck is tender in that area. I use pain killers, like acetaminophene, but I haven’t found them very helpful. My throat is not red, but the glands are a bit larger. How should I treat these symptoms? Thanks.
I think that chronic parotits should be treated with antibiotics. It’s usually caused by bacteria. I had the same problem. I was given smear from throat and used antibiotics. I know how annoying that pain and pressure in throat may be.
