Got a swelling near ear.
I got an eye infection two days back and i am already using eye drops which the doctor prescribed. Suddenly i got a swelling in between my cheek and ear. I don't know whether these are connected. When i touch the swelling spot, it is not that painful. But if i press it a bit, it is paining. It's been 1 day since i got the swelling. I also have a bit of soaring throat i believe.
