Hi, I have a big problem that has been bothering me throughout my life. I am 29 years old and have had one of the glands under my tongue swell up since I was a little girl. I remember I used to push down with my finger and saliva would squirt out or I would press down with my tongue to release it from pain. As I grew older, I didn't get this as much, just on and off. For the past year though, the problem came back and has gotten really bad. One of the glands swells up constantly, especially when I'm eating, and sometimes I cannot eat. Two weeks ago, I couldn't use the old methods to release the saliva out, now, thankfully it works and I gleek on a constant basis, so much saliva comes our like a fountain and if I don't push on the gland with my tongue, then it's back to being swollen and I can't eat or drink. I don't feel that there's a stone although I'm not sure since I haven't taken any tests and the area doesn't look swollen visually. This is just on my right side. What kind of tests should I take for this and what are the possibilities that might cause this problem? Thanks.
