Mefac is a NSAID which can be used for acute pain if you do not have problem with stomach, kidneys or blood pressure. You should take with foods to protect your stomach and do not take routinely after one week. Stop the medication if you have upset stomach or symptom of indigestion. Hope you will get better soon.

Most swollen Parotid glads caused by blockage in the gland's duct. Appropriate treatment best provided by specialist Oral Surgeon, and a simple x-ray may be diagnostic.
