Hi Staycalm:
It's good to have it checked like you did. It could be nothing, but if you've had it a while, it needed checking. I pray that it's nothing other than an inflamed gland or infection, and that seems to be the direction you headed. So, STAYCALM, ha, and let us know what you find out. Others will be answering when they read your post, so you'll gain a lot of good advice and experiences from them. Nite nite, Julieann
