How To Treat Lump Under Jaw?
Hi I discovered a lump under my jaw. It is very mildly painful if pressed hard. It is moving. I have no cold or throat infection. For the past 3 months I ave noticed tat even the usual home cooked food is spicy for me when it sent for others. Is it related anything to the lump?

The general cause for the bleeding gums could be because of the deposits(calculus) leading to inflammation of the gingiva(gums). this can lead to swollen gums, bleeding while brushing and sensitivity.
this can be managed by a thorough oral prophylaxis(scaling).
other causes includes, any bleeding disorders like thrombocytopenia, hemophilia and other..need to get complete hemogram done and consult a Oral physician as early as posible.
