A member asked:
What might be causing the painful recurring lump on the upper left side of my neck right under my jaw?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neck lump jaw pain: See a head and neck or oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Many neck/jaw masses are dental in origin, and are often overlooked. Wisdom teeth, abscessed jaw teeth, or other dental pathology may present this way. A good oral exam of the teeth and jaws is a good first step.
