What Causes Lump On Lower Right Jaw?
i have a lump on my lower right jaw. i have had it for 3 yrs. you can see it when you look at me. My ENT doc did 3 needle biopsey and got nothing. it's painful it becomes bigger and smaller daily. It doesn't move its solid the size of a grape. I have it on film and photo, I have been told it a medical mystery. I have been to sloan kettering and mount sinai hosp. No answers at either place. I have seen a well known dental surgeon, he doesn't have any idea. I have seen 8 doctors who haven't a clue what it is. no fevers. 50 yr old woman 5'10 150

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have submandibular lymphnode enlargement or sub mandibular siledenitis. You should go for biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
