Asking for Self, Male, 36 years old, RAHIM YAR KHAN
Hi sir, I have a deep stone Chronic submandibular gland infection (chronic sialadenitis) with a salivary stone (sialolithiasis) blocking the duct partially. It is not worst as it was earlier. Stone is likely at junction of gland and duct (not visible through X-RAY) but can be felt through finger and observed in Ultrasound. It gives mucus discharge under tongue, relief after drainage, intermittent blockage, not a fresh breath. partial improvement with Clindamycin (DALACIN C). Gland is not bigger but hard to small extent near stone. Is there any Sialendoscopy treatment available? Do you cover EFU Life Insurance?
aoa
dear patient
your problem is submandibular sialolithiasis,in simple words a stone in duct of the submandibular gland causing stasis of secretions and now swelling formation.
you need to get Excision of the gland with removal of the stone in duct..
This is insha\'Allah the best treatment.
This is an open surgical procedure performed under GA,
u may need to get admitted for a day
surgical cost is 85000/-
don\'t know about efu coverage??
