Cheek Swollen Due To Lump Along With Sore Tongue And Stiff Neck. Whom To Consult?

I have a been having problems with my wisdom teeth which I am having removed in July. However, for the past week I have been waking up in a sweat and I have a lump in my cheek (which is swollen) and the tip of my tongue is very sore. My neck was stiff, but it is back to normal. Do I have some type of virus? I also have bumps on the end of my tongue. Should I see a doctor or dentist?

Hello
You should see you dentist as it looks like you have developed an infection and may need antibiotics and surgical drainage for the infection. Please dont ignore this and meet your dentist as soon as possible.
