Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
Swelling in the sub mandibular gland can be caused due to-inflammation of gland through the ears.
Get a thorough clinical as well as Si a lo g r a p h y investigation done.
Since prolonged use of lemon can cause erosion as well as sensitivity of teeth,avoid it.
Use soft bristled toothbrush as well as d e s e n s i t i s i n g toothpaste to clean your teeth.
Since you are allergic to antibiotics,get the medicines replaced after consulting with your physician.
Hope this helps.
