Swollen glands, purging, and bulimia

Often when a person suffering from bulimia is on the road to recovery, the most distressing sight to witness is the swollen face. Especially when working on bulimia recovery with the determination to stop vomiting, noticing the swollen glands causes the victim to vomit again in an attempt to make the swollen glands in the neck go down again.

Often times, this high motivation to beat bulimia is sabotaged by the continued development of bloated acorns, making recovery very difficult. If this is the vicious cycle that you can identify with, then there are things you can do to regain a sense of health, well-being, and the shape and form of your usual face.

In a common person, any form of inflammation of the glands is usually a normal response of the body to an injury, infection, disease or abnormal growth of this area.

Unlike a gland infection where a response to a course of antibiotics would eliminate any bacterial invasion, facial swelling in the cheek and jaw regions due to bulimia cannot be cured with conventional medications. The simple fact is that as long as a person with bulimic tendencies continues to vomit; he or she will always have signs of swelling in the facial area.

Vomiting damages the gland tissue from the constant attack of stomach acids. Bloating is a normal defense reaction to heal any irritation caused by vomiting. Most of this swelling is simply water retention in the glands, as well as the glands themselves working to overcompensate for fluid loss elsewhere in the body.

This means that when you vomit, all you are doing is getting rid of the water from your acorns, such as salivary acorns and parotid acorns. So it gives the impression of reduced swelling, but this is only temporary because your body immediately tries to repair the damaged glands and begins to retain water again, creating a vicious cycle.

The only way to treat this is to stop vomiting completely, but gradually. For most bulimia sufferers like you, that means stopping the binges that occur, which is much easier to control than the self-reflection of vomiting.

The binge and purge is an automatically learned response; Because it is a learned behavior, you can choose to unlearn it in no time. Once you stop vomiting, after a few months, you should see your face return to normal. But be patient, the return to your normal facial size could take time, depending on your own healing process, as well as where the other serious damages are located on your body (ex: stomach lining, digestive tract ulceration, burden on your heart / liver / kidney functions, electrolyte abnormalities, damage to teeth and gums, knuckles, etc.).

Here are some natural remedies you can try:

Many natural remedies can also help you recover your face much faster by taking better care of it and providing the best conditions for your own body to heal.

Gargling with salt water every day (use warm water) can help clear up any minor infections, as the iodine found in rock salt will help speed up this recovery process.

Nutritionally, you can also do a lot:

. Eating mackerel can reduce inflammation by actively releasing prostaglandins (a hormone-like substance).

. Berries are a good source of vitamin C, which helps with any thyroid gland problems due to the ability to boost the immune system.

. Sea vegetables like seaweed are a rich source of iodine, as is salmon, which also contains omega-3 fatty acids.

. Brazil nuts contain selenium, which helps support endocrine systems, including the parotid glands in the neck.

. Eating carrots can help calm the mucous membrane throughout the digestive tract, reducing irritation and inflammation. It is also very good to cleanse the liver overworked with toxins.

Onion, on the other hand, acts against fluid retention and helps with gout (swelling) in the neck region.

You can also season your food with a pinch of Saffron, as it has anti-inflammatory properties, but it also adds a fantastic aroma and color to your plate.

Avoid foods like coffee, cola, sugary foods, cabbage, as well as eating salt (instead of gargling), as they make it difficult for damaged tissue to heal and slow recovery.

Natural interventions to treat your purge-swollen acorns, it takes dedication and patience on your part! Avoid waiting for miracles overnight, so that the effects of bulimia wear off, as you accept your own personal responsibilities to stop purging. With better care, bulimia symptoms such as swollen glands, sore throat, constant loss of voice, and regular infection in this area will diminish over time, and you will see a marked difference in the size and shape of your face.
