A member asked:
Could i have jaw cancer - i had rc by dentist 4 days ago, pain in jaw still unbearable. he gave me new antibiotics today - i can feel lump inside. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sounds more: like an infection that is not controlled, rather than tumor or cancer. But infection could be serious too, so if these new antibiotics do not work soon, consult with an oral surgeon.
