The best reason you have to make an urgent appointment with your doctor.

yes consult a doctor or GP just to get it checked it may not be something serious i had the same problem but mine went in a couple of days but if it is there for longer than a week go to the doc. x

It is a viral or bacterial infection in the parotid gland called parotitis, you may have a salivary duct stone/stones or it can be infected from poor oral hygiene. Being that it is a salivary gland, sour will increase the pain, so will pinching it. Treatment consists of antibiotics, warm compresses, massaging the gland and try to express the content through the duct into your mouth and if it doesn't get any better, your doctor may have to drain it surgically.
