Guest guest Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hi Bee, this salivary gland is on the inside of my jaw behind my molar teeth. It gets big and small. It has gotten so big I popped it one time. When it is small, it feels like a small rock in there. It has been the most worrisome thing I have had in awhile. I feel pressure sometimes from my jaw to my ear. Dr. Mercola posted an article about cancer in this particular salivary gland due to cell phone use. I do know my body is working. I do understand that:) Since last time I have changed a little (grown up?). I am committed to doing everything right and I have not had alcohol since last fall. That was the hardest thing to give up but I did it. I am not saying I drank a lot but at least once a week and on vacations. Going to take one of my SWEET responders suggestions and I am going shopping for a new outfit! Shelby > > > > Hi everyone, > <snip> > > > > I know this is okay but I feel like I am falling apart!!!! It is hard to feel good for two days and then terrible for three. > > > > I have an appt to see about that salivary gland that refuses to go away next Friday. Trying to stay positive but of course I think the worst. Having candida and going to doctors has led me to have so much anxiety. I have thought I was dying so many times. > > > +++Hi Shelby, > > I think did a great job of helping you understand why you are feeling so terrible and what it means. > > Salivary glands can get blocked up too, mine did. They were so hard and painful I thought they were rocks. lol! They are caused by eliminating toxins which can block them, just like your tears can be blocked or any glands. > > To help them massage them with your fingertips or thumb depending upon which ones are involved. If it is the one under your chin you can put a couple fingers inside under your tongue, in front of your teeth, and your thumb underneath and press and massage as best you can. Or just massages them from the outside by using circular motions. > > Also mix 3% hydrogen peroxide 50/50 with non-chlorinated warm water and take a mouthful (don't swallow it) and hold it in your mouth for up to 2 minutes swishing it around. > > Applying wet heat to your salivary glands will also help. > > They will unblock as you progress so please have faith in your body and this program. > > I highly recommend keeping a journal, which I did, so you are able to look back and see how far you have progressed. > > Healing hugs, Bee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have an abscess and not a salivary gland problem because it can be popped, which means it contains pus. An abscess is inflammation and infection your body creates in order to handle some injury, intrusion, irritation, etc., just like does around a wood sliver in the skin. Pus is simply the substances the body uses to heal itself. See Inflammation and Infection are Natural Healing Processes. If I were you I'd see the dentist to pinpoint why that area of your mouth is creating inflammation, i.e. what is causing the irritation. You do not " have to do " any treatments he recommends depending upon what he finds. In the meantime you can use the hydrogen peroxide as I recommended. Let me know what the dentist finds. All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Bee, today I woke up and didn't feel drugged. My usually heavy limbs felt light. It is the first time since I started. I also didn't come home and sleep for 2 hours. I felt happier today. Maybe I am making progress. My son and I went and had a Latte (just coffee and milk, no sugar added) after school to celebrate his and my last day of school. I am a teacher so I am happy too.
