Please help! i'm having painful lump/cut under tooth in gum?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Painful Lump: See your dentist asap as this sounds like a tooth that is abscessing; you do not want to leave an infection untreated. It can be easily treated with a root canal. If your dentist determines that it is not tooth related then referral to a specialist is in order.
