its not much of a swelling- its simply one of my glands- like the ones that gets swollen if you have mono. Anyway it seems to have died down over night. It's funny- i get these little nagging irritations- what feels like a bladder infection, my lips get swollen and itchy, but the feeling never turns into a full blown infection, it just tingles for a day or two, or maybe an evening. I'm guessing the swollen gland is of simillar ilk.
