Hi There,
My wife had an enlarged lump at the base of her neck (left side). As a result he had blood work done. Since then she has developed an acutely swollen parotid gland on the left side of her face accompanied by a rash and a fever (38-39 Degrees Celsius). Her bloods have recently come back and showed a neutrophilia. Our local GP is not sure and thinks it could be mumps (although she has been immunised) but cannot r/o bacterial parotiditis.
Would like to get your thoughts?
Many Thanks
Gregg
