Salivary gland: Hello, it sounds like your submandibular gland may be infected. The best treatment is antibiotics and steroids. The medication should be reasonable in cost. The emergency room can help you. Most hospitals will provide care and structure an affordable payment plan. In the mean time, warm compresses to the area, drink water and suck on a sour hard candy. These may help to open and drain the gland.
