after visiting a restaurant i noticed that my mouth felt sore on the inside and about 3 hours later it was very painful...i looked in the mirror at the inside of my jaw area and i noticed a big bump on the inside could that possible have been from the food or something else?
Hello and welcome. Thanks for sharing your concern. It could be due to ongoing process of teeth decay. Now it appears that an abscess has developed which requires an urgent treatment. You can start with antibiotics and analgesics after meeting your dentist. Upon proper evaluation the offending tooth can be treated by root canal treatment. Start with warm saline rinses. Hope it helps. Thanks. Take care.
