Follow with dentist: The lump you are describing, in the context of tooth pain may mean a serious dental issue (such as abscess). Please follow up with your dentist.

See your dentist: If you know you are having problems with your molars I would suggest getting them out sooner than later. If your dentist has recommended having them out it would be wise to follow their advise. Inflammation can develop rather quickly around the wisdom teeth and can cause a sore jaw! Best of luck!

See a dentist ASAP: Unlike some other types of infection, a dental abscess from wisdom tooth infection will not get better on its own and must be treated by a dentist. Do not delay.
