Question: HI Doctor,
My age is 32. I am Married. I had mumps in 2012. From yesterday night onwards i could feel that my right jaw below my ear is getting tender. Is this mumps again that i am having. I went to a ENT specalist and he checked my tongue and salivary glands and told me that its not mumps and gave me these medicines 1. Dolo 650 Mg 2. ESoz D40 3.podocip 200 4.becon forte. After i came back home i had vomiting (once) and then mild fever. Last night i took medicine and now i am not having fever. But the tendernesss below my ear is still there but very llittle. I had body pains yesterday but after taking the medicine last night (dolo and podocip 200 ) i am relived from the body pains. When i check physically from outside the swelling is very minute and it takes time to identify it properly. But from the inside i can feel the tenderness below my ear. I heard that mumps dont affect second time but i suspect that its mumps again. I dont know wat to do . Can this b any other cause of swelling. can i go for any kind of vaccination at this age against mumps. please do advise thank u

Thank u for the advise doctor. I would like to know what kind of viral infection is this. I also would like to inform you that my wife was suffereing from cold and caugh followed by fever from past few days and she recoverd back . As I am the next person to her is there any possibility that i have got "Mononucleosis" bcoz of her due to close contact of her or is this any kind of other viral disease. I am non alcoholic and non smoker. Thank u sir
