Lump Under Ear After Being Choked During Sex. Swollen And Painful Glands. What To Do?

This may sound a little bit odd but my bf chocked me during sex (with my consent of course) and now it seems that I have a lump under my ear that I can only assume is my glands swollen but it is very pain fall and I don’t know what to do, I did feel a bit cold like the last couple of days but I am worried that it isn’t that and that something is dislodged?

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hello,
There is nothing which can get dislodged below the ears.
The only problem in such conditions is swelling or edema inside the throat which i hope you do not have , and which is evident by the change in voice and difficulty in breathing.
If this is not there then there is not much to worry about .The lump could be a swollen lymph node which could have been there previously also but has become evident now.
You can take a antiinflammtory medicine and still if the pain persists then you need to consult a doctor and take antibiotics.
In doubt do reply
