Dentist,  's  Response
helloo...read through ur query...accordingly i can say that it is an abscess...if the molar is decayed it can be due to that decay roots might have infected and if no decay present and pain while biting etc it can be due to abscess in the periodontal origin...nothing to worry...do salt water gargle...meet a dentist .take xray ..based on that he may do deep scaling and rootplaning(periodontal abscess)or rootcanal treatment and crown(periapical abscess)..be cool..hope ur benefitted by my reply..have a healthy day!!!
