What Causes Hard Jaw Lumps With Pain After Sclerotherapy?

hi, so i just had sclerotherapy done a week ago on the right side of my face back behind my jaw/under my ear and im healing fine. I was told i would be sore and swollen for 1 to 2 weeks. However about two days ago i noticed a little lump alongside my swollen area (the area is hard because they infused my tumor with alcohol) this lump is also hard and very tender. I didn t really think much of it but i found another lump right next to it today, it got harder and more pronounced during the day. also im have pain running down my neck from this area, it feels like its my veins that hurt but they also feel hard. I got online to try to find something and got stuck so i was wondering if you thought i should be concerned.

Hi,Dear,Welcome to HCM. Based on the facts of your query,You seem to suffer from-Post Sclrosant Edema and Thrombophelbitis of the tumor and peritumor tissue ,causing cellultic induration ,which leads to the hardness of the jaw lump and pain in it after sclerotherapy.
MRI study with Second Opinion from Treating Onco-Surgeon or Physician would resolve your issues about its occurrence.
