Staph on upper left cheek and lymph node below ear is swollen to bouncy ball size. whole area throbs and is very sensitive to touch. er or dr visit?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Urgent care: I'll recommend urgent care if your doctor's office is closed. I'll only suggest ER if all else fails and you can't wait till morning. Without seeing the lesion, it's hard to rule out ER. Good health.
