Please tell me can digestive disorders cause swollen parotid glands?

Parotid glands: There are several conditions that can cause swollen parotid glands.. We cannot make a diagnosis without evaluating your condition. See an oral surgeon for the parotid gland. If you are concerned about digestive problems see your primary care or a GI doctor.

No : They could be the comorbid conditions., but the salivary glands may become inflamed and swollen because of infection, tumors, or stones. If concern see your PCP for more information.
