Obstructive & Inflammatory Disorders

Common parotid gland problems are inflammatory and neoplastic. Obstructive and inflammatory disorders of the salivary glands are commonly caused by different pathological conditions affecting the gland tissue.

• Neoplastic issues can be benign or parotid gland cancer.
• The inflammation is called parotitis.
• Common neoplastic condition is a mixed parotid tumor. For children, it is called mumps, a viral infection.
• When the mouth is dry, especially in the postoperative period, parotid glands can get infected.
• The parotid gland has a duct through which juices from the gland reach the oral cavity while eating. Sometimes there may be stones in the duct causing backflow, and this also is a predisposing factor for parotid infection.
• These issues are mostly associated with a common condition of dry mouth.

Our expert diagnosticians help you figure out your problem with proper diagnostic procedures. Talk to your doctor if you face any of the salivary gland issues.
