Question:
What may be the cause and solution of an inflamed/swollen lacrimal gland (per an MRI)?
Answer:
The cause of an inflamed swollen lacrimal gland found on a magnetic resonance imaging may be an infection, a malignancy such as lymphoma, or a metastasis from a malignant tumor elsewhere in the body.
