Mid Jan I had surgery to remove lump for salivary gland along with lymph gland removal. Due to facial nerve complications I ended up having 6.5 hr operation and nerve damage to my mouth.
After 3 months my mouth is back to normal but I am still sore along the scar, my ear is very tender and check and under jaw line is swollen and tender and just aches. I am tired and really struggling to regain strength. I am mid 40,s and fairly fit and healthy.
Due to the current situation my second follow up appointment has been cancelled and I feel guilty contacting my specialist regarding relatively minor moans so was hoping someone could offer some advice as to length of expected recovery.
thank you
