What are the possible causes of sudden, painless swelling in the right cheek that has partially improved after taking ibuprofen?

Asked by Female, 57 · 2 days ago

Sudden cheek swelling that partially improves with an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen is often related to a blocked salivary gland duct or mild, localized inflammation, sometimes stemming from a minor dental issue. Since ibuprofen reduces inflammation, it makes sense that you noticed some improvement. I highly recommend having a doctor or dentist examine your cheek to identify the exact cause and ensure it resolves completely. Please rest assured, this is very common and highly treatable.
