I'm experiencing some pain and swelling right in front of my tragus, kind of towards my face. I've tried using an ear wax and infection solution, but it's not helping. Also, I'm having these small feverish spells. What could this be, and what should I do?
Could indicate an infection in the ear or surrounding area. I recommend you use an antibiotic ear drop like Ciprodex (ciprofloxacindexamethasone) to help with the infection. Additionally, you can take ibuprofen for pain and fever relief. However, it is important to see a doctor for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I've been dealing with a lot of excessive salivation lately and it's really hard for me to swallow. I'm worried and wondering what could be causing this and what I can do to help it. Any advice would be appreciated.
Excessive salivation (hypersalivation) and difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) can be caused by various factors, including anxiety, stress, oral infections, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), neurological disorders, or medication side effects; remedies include practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or meditation, chewing sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva swallowing, avoiding acidic or spicy foods, elevating the head of your bed, and consulting a doctor or dentist to rule out underlying conditions that may require medical attention.
