What Causes Lump Along Jaw After Wisdom Teeth Removal?
I just had my three wisdom teeth removed and filling put in on Friday, the 13th. Besides severe swelling, I've been fine up until now where I'm having deep chest pain. It comes in waves. I have a dentist appointment today at 5PM to discuss a hard lump along my jaw on the right side of my face that developed after surgery. Should I be concerned about the chest paiN?

welcome to Health care magic.
1.It could be just post procedural changes, swollen/oedematous changes in adjecent muscles.
2.It should resolve on its own. if not happening means there is some infective process going on.
3.See your dentist, doctor may give another course of antibiotic treatment.
4.Hope it helps you.
