This video is legitimately a life saver. I was actually petrified when my neck starting swelling. I followed steps 1-3 and the stone came out within two days. It was gross, lol, but I’m so thankful.

Thanks for this video!!! I have horrifically painfully swollen glands - submandibular AND the parotid. I am on antibiotics and some pain meds, but even the motrin wasn't enough. I had been massaging incorrectly and this has REALLLLLLLLLLLLY helped with my pain.

The massage helped so much. Thank you for posting!

Thank you SO much for taking the time to put out this video to help us with this! I have this right now. At first I thought it was a tooth infection - went to the dentist and was put on antibiotics but within 3 days the swelling and pain had spread and gotten much worse so I went back to the dentist and they were floored - told me I needed to go the ER for a surgical drain. I was completely freaking out, afraid it was full of infection and would rupture inside my jaw! So off to the ER I went, they did a CT Scan and discovered it was this blocked Salivary Gland and that there isn't any infection. Boy was I glad to hear that but let me tell you, this thing hurts! I just now got home from the ER and looked it up and now here I am. I haven't been able to eat or sleep in 3 days and swallowing hurts terribly but I will definitely go through that to drink lots of water starting right now! Calling the ENT doc tomorrow. This has been a crazy 3 days but I'm so glad to know what it is now and that it's NOT a big abscess full of "infection" that could burst at any moment!

Got it effected on paratoid for 2years..feels better while recovering. Thanks to the doctor for helping in the process

Many thanks for the reminders. It's been a while since "attacks" and I had needed to brush up on self care. Much appreciated. I've just come off experiencing a severe cold and think that this is likely to be a secondary infection.

This has happened to me three different times. All three times, it started up on days when I was busy and forgot to eat or drink anything until the evening. Staying hydrated is so important. My ENT told me to eat very plain foods when my salivary gland is blocked. I tried eating a lemonhead once when my gland was inflamed, it swelled up huge and hurt like hell, never again. He did recommend massaging the gland, warm compresses, and drinking plenty of water though.

I barely touched my small glandular and it caused pain and anxiety lol. I am a water freak yet I still have it. The procedure to remove any blockage is super simple and painless. Thanks for this video I appreciate it!
