for about 3 years now ive dealt with a lump under my right jaw. I saw my dentist, as he thought it was an absese tooth. I had two root canals and finally had back molar pulled. the lump was still there. I saw an ent and was told I had infected saliva glands. I did all I was told and lump still remains. I occasionally have ear pain and right facial pain. I now have what I think is a stye on my right eye lid but cant help but think maybe it isnt and this is related to the other sysmptoms I have or had on the right side of my face. im a 37 year old female.
Hi there, Thanks for asking your query, Please contact an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon if you develop a persistent lump. Your doctor will examine your head and neck, including the area inside your mouth. The doctor will press gently on areas of your cheeks and jaw to feel for lumps, areas of tenderness. Then, depending on your symptoms, history and physical findings, the doctor may order few tests like
