A member asked:
Last night, after eating skittles candy, i started feeling a sore feeling in hole area under left ear, it's about 50% better this morning but still not right... what could this be, and is this something to worry about? no swelling or other symptoms.

Gland pain: With stimulus from extreme sour or sweet, your saliva and/or parotid gland could have reacted-like a spasm. Or is some cases it can be a small stone in the gland duct. Moist warm compresses and no Skittles :) should help - if worsens, see Dr
