Scalp swelling more prominent after chewing food for the past 3-4 days, 20 year old male with no other medical problems.

Swelling/chewing: May be TMJ typanomandibular syndrome. Would also check for strep and consider mycoplasma infection as that can mimic strep ( responds to azithromycin)and would check for salivary gland dysfunction. Would follow up with doc.
