Hello I will be 41 within few mths/ 55ft tall & 145lb. One c-section surgery of twins 5 yrs ago. I am a smoker (unfortunetly), advent exerciser and no illnesses. About a yr and half ago I had a moler tooth pulled and months later a bump or lump started appearing on same side of pulled tooth right under my skin on my cheek. Its not painful and started off small & unnoticeable but is getting bigger. I have been referred to a Dermatologist who want to perform surgery and cut on my face which would leave a scar. Wouldnt an oral surgeon be best for this job and which procedure of removal would you medically suggest? Simply trying to seek the best solution for me. I am awaiting response and thank you for your time.
HI, Dear,Thanks for the inquisitive query to Chat Doctor.1-I studied your query in depth.2-In my opinion, this is the post-dental extraction swelling after the molar was extracted 1.5 yrs back, is most probably a dental related lump-.3-I would advise you to consult dental surgeon-who would take the dental x-ray to rule out any causal factor for the present lump -after 1.5 yrs of your molar removal.4-You are rightly thinking and should go to dental /oral surgeon for its treatments ASAP.4-Hope this would solve your query and worry about your 9 yr old daughter.5-Wellcome for more queries to me On Chat Doctor.6-Thnks once again for your inquisitive query. Have a Good Day.!!
