See oral surgeon: Unilateral swelling of this gland may include many different pathologies to include a sialolith (stone), and a visit to the oral surgeon is warranted. Good luck!

Blockage: Usually due to blockage of the duct from the gland. Massage, heat. You may need to see your md if it persists. Could be a tumor.
