Hi,
My right lateral teeth has been aching for two days, then i gargled hydrogen peroxide on the third day. The following day, i had this big lump in my hard palette almost the size of a jackstone ball. I went to the dentist to have it checked and she said it's a pus due to infection and prescribed be an antibacterial medicine. I'm on meds for 4 days now and i don't feel any pain on my tooth anymore but the lump is still there, not as big but still there.
My dentist said the only remedy to the "tooth ache" is either root canal or extraction. What shall be my next step? Would it be ok to seek consultation from an ENT specialist?
Thank you in advance for your advice.
