Anyone had parotid gland blockages?

its.whatever • Pre health student👩🏽‍⚕️ Truth makes people mad😁

So I found out that the swelling under my tongue through to my chin was caused by blockage. I’m not sure from what but the dr told me to grab some sour candies and massage the area. I woke up with my tongue swollen this morning and I’m just wondering if anyone has any extra tips to help this it’s a super uncomfortable feeling
