In this episode of EENT101, host Dr. Christina G. Gonzales, DMSc, MPAS, PA-C, covers Sialadenitis, an infection or inflammation of the salivary glands—most commonly the parotid or submandibular glands. You’ll learn to recognize symptoms such as gland swelling, pain, erythema, and purulent duct drainage, understand common causes including bacterial infection, viral illness, and ductal obstruction, and review management strategies from hydration and sialogogues to antibiotics and ENT referral when needed.
