Have a disturbance below my jaw feeling like swollen and my face feels like numbness is it salivary gland infection? or something else

Potential Infection: Swellings often is an inflammatory response that could be secondary to an infection. Sources of infections in the jaw may be from any tissue both hard and soft. Salivary gland swelling is not the most common type however should be evaluated by a dentist or physician.

Swelling/numbness: Most common cause is infection, such as abscessed tooth and/or gum disease. Salivary gland infection is relatively rare. To begin the diagnostic process, please see your Dentist for a comprehensive examination, imaging, and possibly lab tests. Facial swelling should be immediately attended because of the risk of airway compromise.
