Overview

The resulting blockage and inflammation (sialitis) causes immense pain on eating when saliva production increases and infection of the salivary gland may ensue. Pain, when present, usually originates from the floor of the mouth, although in many cases the stones cause only intermittent swelling. Pain may be further intensified when eating sour or tart foods or candies. Other symptoms are dry mouth; bad taste in mouth; and local swelling.

History and Symptoms

• Difficulty opening the mouth or swallowing
• Dry mouth
• Pain in the face or mouth: Pain, when present, usually originates from the floor of the mouth, although in many cases the stones cause only intermittent swelling. Pain may be further be intensified when eating sour or tart foods or candies.
• Swelling of the face or neck (can be dramatic when eating or drinking)
• Since chewing promotes release of saliva, symptoms tend to increase during meals.
