I have swelling on the side of my face where my jaw line and ear lobe meet. Its in the front by the lobe. It started off small didn t bother me and now its itchy and purple. Right on my side at the end of jaw line. Its sensitive. I still have my wisdom but have never caused me any problems.
Hello Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor I have read your query. As far as swelling in jaw near ear lobe is concerned this can be due to infection of wisdom tooth, inflammation of gums or due to temporomandibular disorder.  Don't be worried so much I will suggest you to consult oral Physician for examination and evaluation. In meantime do warm saline rinses, maintain proper oral hygiene. You can take medicine like Amoxicillin with Metronidazole by consulting with local doctor. Hope my answer helps you.
