A member asked:
Is it possible that i develope a cyst in my right parotid gland becouse i sleep with my hearing aid in my right ear everynight when i go to bed ?

I don't think so: I do not believe the two are related. They are really not that close. It would be more likely to form a blockage of the parotid gland duct. Make sure you are not experiencing dry mouth on just that side of your mouth.
