7mm Stone in right submandibular gland
I am having a swelling on right side of my face under jawline for last 14 days. Having problem and pain while eating.
Scan report says 7mm stone in lumen of main duct where it emerges out of the gland
Now no pain for last 3 days.. But i can feel the lump/swelling
My question is..... Is surgery the only option?
If yes then will it b from inside mouth or from outside of neck?
Can i get Sialendoscopy done.?
I am in Amritsar
Where nearest its being done..?
Thanks
