MUCH PAIN! Please help! Best?!


Question: MUCH PAIN! Please help! Best!?
I have a very very very swollen gland under my left ear (I think it is a lymph node)!. I have a sinus infection which I'm on amoxicillan for, but so far it has done nothing for this particular gland and it is growing!. It's 4:45 am my time and this gland woke me up in pain about 30 minutes ago!. it is about 1!.5 inches long, 1 inch wide and about an inch off of my neck (in between the jaw bone and neck)!. Please help as this is SO painful!. Should I go to the hospital and get some medicine!? See an ENT tomorrow!? Can't go through another night with this pain!. Please help asap!. Thanks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You might need a stronger antibiodic or a stronger dose of what you are on!. If that gland is still swollen you need to get an emergency appointment with your ENT!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should call your doctor and tell him your symptoms!. If you are not having any difficulty breathing or severe fevers or chills, you can probably wait a few more hours to call your doctor, but make sure you are see by someone today!. If sounds like you may have possibly have an abscess!. If you go to the ER, you will probably be made to wait for 4 or 5 or even more hours, so by the time you wait, your other doctor's office will be open, but you can still call the doctor on call!.

You didn't give enough information to really understand your problem!. Are you having any fevers, chills, difficulty breathing!? It the pain just when you move or touch your nodule or is it throbbing when you are perfectly still!. Are you having drainage in the back of your throat!? Is your throat sore!? Call your doctor and talk to him!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this is a sign that ur body is fighting the infection,give time for the antibiotics to work or you may need a stronger dose!. take anti-inflammitry painkillers and try a warm compress on the area!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should go to hospital to get a scan to see what it is the lump you have between your jaw and your neck!.I think you have a very serious malady and your sinus don't help much ,it makes it worst!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
