Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Wisdom tooth are mostly tilted in position and impacted in jaw bone which leads to pain.
The area is difficult to clean and invites bacterial infection leading to redness , inflammation and swelling of the adjacent tissues .
The infection may spread further to jaw bones and spaces .
Painful movable lump near the jaw line can be because of abscess formation .

I would suggest you to visit to an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and get a checkup done.
Take an OPG x-ray.
Take complete course of antibiotic and analgesic .
Maintain a good oral hygiene ,
Use saline water gargles 3-4 times a day.
Use 0.2% of chlorhexidine mouthwash gargles twice daily.
Mostly you have to go for extraction of the wisdom tooth and drainage of the abscess.

Hope this helps out.

Regards.....

A pain full lump can be anything from abscess to a enlarged lymph node .. you are advised to consult a oral and maxillo facial surgeon in this regard.. a proper course of anti biotic has to be started before extraction ..you may give TAB Ketorol 10mg as a symptomatic relief ..

Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Since your dentist has diagnosed cause of lump under jaw line being the impacted wisdom tooth,get the teeth either extracted or retained depending on space available for tooth eruption.

Meanwhile,Take amoxycillin as well as diclofenac tablets.

Gargle frequently with warm saline or betadine.

Rinse your mouth after every meals.

Maintain oral hygiene well.

Take care.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that these painful lumps might be enlarge sub mandibular lymph nodes.
There might be some infection in wisdom teeth giving rise to this problem.
Go for antibiotic medicine course after consulting your dentist.
Ok and bye.
