What Causes Swollen Right Glands Under Tongue After Eating Chicken?

Hi, I was eating chicken earlier and I feel like a chicken bone has been lodged under my tongue, towards the back. I'm unable to see this, however a couple of hours after, my right gland looks as though it has swollen up. It still feels as if there is something there. What do you think is the best thing to do?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, you have mentioned that you have swelling under tongue , dont worry for this you do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
Consult dentist and go for investigations if there is any periodontal problem or injury during eating and you are feeling of swollen gland ,
Visit dentist and go for investigations and treatment early as possible

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
