I believe what has worked best so far is packing the area with Bentonite clay. I take the powder, maybe a teaspoon, mix in just enough water to make a dry dough, and put it in between cheek and tooth area. Last night I also packed the other side, under the tongue. Today, much better. Glands less swollen. But yesterday I also began drinking some clay with lots of water, and did a clay foot soak for about an hour.
Ordered Mesosilver and should have in a day or two. I've been swishing and taking Sovereign Silver, but I don't like it as much as Utopia, or Meso (which I think, for me, works best).
Will update with results, and I'll continue to check and see if anyone has advice.
