Suggest Remedy For Swollen Gland In Throat

Only on my left side I have a swollen gland it is hard to swallow, when I look in the back of my throat it looks white with black, my temp is only 99.1 I get a dizzy feeling, I feel like it is also effecting my left ear and jaw/ neck and headaches.. No one else is sick in my house yet but I worry because I have a 7 month old grand daughter living with me and a 34 week pregnant daughter.

thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....

see it seems like you are having some sore throat most probably due to strepto infection....sore throat or pharyngitis can also affect left ear through auditory tube....jaw/neck pain also possible from spread....

do the following-
take tab coamoxyclav 625 thrice daily 5 days
maintain oral hygiene
gargle with povidone iodine twice daily
take tab paracetamol 650 SOS if fever comes

you can visit an ENT specialist if it does not decrease in 3-5 days....

hope it was helpful....
regards
