Today I went for a CTscan on the rt mandibular fixed lymphnode and tonight I started getting swelling all along the gumline to my ear and pain above the jawline in my cheek I dont have a tooth above the fixed lymphnode it was pulled out years ago but the gums are swelling fast. I havent received the results from the ct scan yet I would like to know if this is concern enough to go to the ER

Hi
Sir
I have gone through your query; it suggests you may be suffering from gingivitis secondary to the bad hygiene of oral cavity. Better to consult dentist for management.

Thanks
