A member asked:
Went to ent, sent home w/ irritated salivary glands and was told to eat yogurt. tonight my neck is swelling around my adam's apple. should i go back?

Yes go back: Is the swelling causing you to have trouble swallowing or breathing? If yes, get to an emergency room immediately! if not affecting swallowing or breathing, you do need to go back to ENT for further evaluation.
