Hi i have a 6cm large lump on right side of my neck under my ear and jawline but no pain or pus or problems in my mouth or teeth. The lump is hard i have tried antibiotics and diclofenac but it is still there. Could this be an abscess tooth or something else?
Hi, Dear,Good Morning. Thanks for the query to my Chat Doctor online-clinic. I studied your query in-depth.-In my opinion the lump in the neck under the ear-is mostly a Pleomorphic parotid Adenoid. Cause of the Lump-As it's not infected lump-as you thought-like abscess or else- and hence it has not responded to antibiotics.-Alerts-Its a slow growing Benign Tumor. You need not worry but initiate proper treatment URGENTLY.-Treatment -a-Consult A ER Surgeon who would treat it by partial-parotidectomy with Excision of the Parotid Adenoid.-Alerts/ Warning for couple consult your ER-Surgeon doctor and take treatment ASAP-is the Advice from me.-Hope this would resolve your worry-some query. Wellcome again to Chat Doctor. Have a good day.
