How To Treat The Lump On My Mouth?

I've had a good size lump on the roof of my mouth for months now, no pain. Somehow it drained and flattened (I didn't get sick) now its back with a bit of pain and pressure, Now I'm having a strange tingling inside my nostril on the side that the lumps on. I have really bad teeth and it doesn't seem like an abscess. Another month before my medical will cover dental screening wondering what to do?

Hi! gone through your query.
It is most probably a cyst associated with a infected tooth.
Your dentist will take X-ray of the jaw and offending tooth.You will require a root canal therapy for the tooth or extraction followed by cyst enucleation.

You can take a full course of antibiotics and analgesics.Visit your dentist as soon as possible to prevent any further spread of the infection.

Regards.
