Hi, I developed a lump in my throat under my right jaw. It has been 3 days.I had a pain from time to time in the same area and my doctor said to eat something sour and the pain would go away.  Now there is a lump in the same area.  What could this be?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The lump near the jaw is because of the tooth infection(abscess secondary to decay. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it evaluated, you have to take a radiograph like OPG to confirm the diagnosis. If I am your treating doctor, I would have prescribed a combination of amoxicillin and metronidazole combination for 5\u00a0days. You can do saline gargling. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
