Pain ober Right Cheek
Am a Chinese Male aged 34 and recently was down with fever and sore throat and I just took PCM and it resolved but today upon waking up I felt that my right side of my cheek was warm and tender on touch
Thus my question now is it mumps or gingivitis
And by the way am working as a health care provider
