Deeper stones can be removed with surgery. To explain it more...... Sialolithiasis (salivary gland stones) — Tiny, calcium-rich stones, called sialoliths or salivary calculi, sometimes form inside the salivary glands. Although the exact cause of these stones is unknown, some stones may be related to dehydration, which thickens the saliva; decreased food intake, which lowers the demand for saliva; or medications that decrease saliva production, including certain antihistamines, blood pressure drugs and psychiatric medications. Some stones sit inside the gland without causing any symptoms. In other cases, a stone blocks the gland's duct, either partially or completely. When this happens, the gland typically is painful and swollen, and saliva flow is partially or completely blocked. This can be followed by an infection called sialadenitis. Hope that helps.... all the best and goodluck in seeing your EENT.
