swollen check

[raindrop]

Dale and I just got home from our trip and noticed that our Hallie has a swollen left check. She is eating and drinking fine but I don't know what it is. Could I get some suggestions please. I plan to make a appt on Monday.

Hi Ann, do you mean cheek? or the neck? I wonder if that could be lymph nodes? How old is Hallie?

 

[raindrop]

yes I mean cheek. She was 2 on Boxing Day.

Does it feel hard or soft, does it seem to hurt her when you touch it?

I would say it is fairly firm. She doesn't swarm or anything when I touch it.
