A member asked:

Is it possible to have glandular fever and mumps at the same time?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely not: Mononucleosis (glandular fever) and mumps both can cause swellings around and under the jaw. Lymph glands in mono and parotid glands in mumps. It would quite uncommon for them to occur at the same time.
