Child with congenital parotid fistula at the age of three

Patient's question:

Between the lower jaw and collarbone of the child, there is a needle-sized eye that becomes red, swells, and oozes pus the size of a coin.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the situation you mentioned needs to be considered whether it is caused by local fluid accumulation or infection. It is recommended that your case be reported to your attending physician for examination to confirm the diagnosis. If it is an infection, it is better to drain the swollen area by incision.
