Neonatal Parotitis

A 6-day-old boy presented with restlessness and swelling of the right pre-auricular area. The patient was born by spontaneous vaginal delivery after a full-term gestation with birth weight of 3805 g. On examination, vital signs and weight were normal, and his temperature was 37.5°C. He had a firm, erythematous, and tender swelling of the right pre-auricular area that extended to the angle of the mandible. Purulent material was expressed from the orifice of the Stensen's duct by massaging the parotid gland (Figure).
