I have a lump on my hard palate not far from my front two teeth that started out a couple months ago and was mildly painful when i pressed on it. It has grown bigger and now hurts quite a bit and it is causing my front left tooth and gums to hurt. It also hurts if i press down on the bottom of my left nostril as if it were bruised. I'm going to the dentist tomorrow but it's sunday and i'm worried about this.
Read your query, as you have lump in hard palate dont be worried so much this lump can be due to dental infection that is due to carious tooth , decayed tooth or periodontal infection leads to formation of Periapical or Periodontal Abscess formation. For this you should consult dentist and go for investigations Occusal radiograph or OPG if needed and go for treatment, scaling or root canal treatment by consulting with you doctor . In meantime you can do warm saline gargle two - three times a day, and take medicine like metronidazole by consulting woth your local doctor.
Hope this will help you. If you have further query , I will be happy to help.
Regards, Dr. Priyanka tiwari
