A member asked:

The floor of my mouth is swollen. it goes down during the day but is fully swollen again by the next morning when i wake up. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Otolaryngologist: There may be intermittent swelling of salivary glands caused by debris or small stones in the salivary gland ducts. I recommend that you be evaluated and treated by an ear,nose and throat specialist(otolaryngologist) for diagnosis and treatment.
