Suggest Me Medication For Lump On Jaw After Wisdom Tooth Removal?
I had my wisdom teeth removed on Friday December 27,2013 and I had little pain after the procedure. I had swelling on my lower left side and on Sunday that swelling was gone, however, now there is a hard lump on my jaw ? What can I do to get rid of it sooner, I've taken my antibiotics and ibuprofen and warm compresses. What can I do or should I go see the dentist again?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have hard swelling after extraction dont worry it can be due to Bony spicules present .
For this you should consult dentist and go for oral examination .
Do luke warm salt gargle two - three times a day.
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
