Common Questions and Answers about Lump on jaw bone

lump

Avatar n tn I had a root canal and several weeks later noticed a pea-sized hard lump on my lower jaw bone, directly down from the root canal. The dentist who put my crown on after the root canal, said that the lump had nothing to do with the root canal, and that I probably always had this lump. Does this sound reasonable?

Avatar m tn I noticed yesterday a hard lump right on my jaw bone, about half way between my ear and chin. It seems a bit like the beginning of a zit, but is very large and I am concerned it may be a tumor. It seems too large to be the beginning stage of a zit and I rarely get them. Should I be concrrned? Is there any way to tell if it is cancer? If it were cancer, would facial hair NOT grow on the bump? Any thoughts?
770108 tn?1235020229 Hello, I am a 42 year old female and about 2 weeks ago I noticed a tender spot under my lower jaw bone. It became increasingly tender and then I noticed a lump on the bone under the lower jaw and it is hurting more and more. It seems to be growing as well. Now when I look in the mirror it looks like that area is swollen but if you touch you can feel the hard lump on the jaw bone. It doesn't move around and it has become so painful it hurts if I yawn or clear my throat.
Avatar m tn I have recently found what feels like a lump on the back lower curve of my jaw bone. It doesnt move, is really hard, and is maybe pea sized. It actually feels like its part of the bone. I am not sure if its just a misformation and has been there all of my life, or is something new. I found it three days ago, and I don't think it has grown at all. I have had pain in that side of my jaw, but its sort of the same pain I have had in it for the last ten years or so.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have a bone like lump under my chin on the right side its attached on the jaw bone and it doesnt move, i first noticed it about 9 years ago, now I have alittle pain around its not painful if pressed against it, I dont know what it is.
Avatar n tn That was about 8 weeks ago and its still there but not as noticable, but still tender if I push on it. I also have some exposed bone on the rim of the socket where the tooth came out and that won't seem to heal. If you get a different answer PLEASE let me know because I've had teeth out before and this didn't happen. I'm going to get another opinion but have to wait 2 weeks.

Avatar f tn s bacterial? I have the same problem, although I only noticed the lump on my gum after having a root canal on tooth #14. The nerves had died though prior to the root canal. It's been two weeks since the root canal and I still have the lump and lingering numbness on the left side of my cheek and lips. After the first root canal procedure I took Cleocin for 5 days.

Avatar f tn i have a hard lump under the bone in my jaw i went to the dentist he gave me antibiotics but they dont seem to be working its really hard and a bit bigger than the size of a tooth its unmoveable and not sore more like pressure what should i do?
Avatar f tn About 1 year ago I had a pea-sized lump on my right jaw. My mum took me to the doctors and they said it was nothing to worry about. After a couple of months, it grew a bit more so we went back. Again, they told me I had nothing to worry about. Now, the lump is a bit bigger than a marble size and I am worrying a lot. I have also been having jaw pain. Sometimes I can't even swallow properly. I'm really scared. What should I do?
Avatar m tn Hi all anyone any ideas ?

Avatar f tn I took my son to the doctor today because earlier this week he noticed a larger than pea sized lump above his jaw on the right, a couple of inches from his chin. He doesn't really complain about it hurting unless it's touched. His doctor is sending us to a ENT on wednesday, and I am absolutely terrified. His doctor has no clue what it could be. He just kept saying it was strange.
Avatar f tn Hi, went to doc's today about lump on neck just above collar bone and another higher up on other side of neck. Had these for a couple of months and apparently have more smaller lumps that I hadn't noticed. Doc thinks all ok and nothing sinister but feeling a bit worried anyway.
Avatar n tn m a 24 year old female-A couple of months ago I woke up with a painful pea to marble sized lump under the skin on my ear. It is located right where my ear connects to my head, on the bottom. Like if I were to pull my earlobe away from my head, it is in that "flap" of skin. Because it was painful and hard, I assumed it was a boil as I have had these in the past. I treated it with warm washclothes and heating pads, but the lump never softened or drained, however, the pain did go away.

Avatar f tn Had root canal last Thurs and by Sat I was in extreme pain and with swelling to lower jaw & lump on inside of cheek & gums. I was given Amox. I have been taking Amox for 3 days & NSAID. Get HA, tired/dizzy off/on. Endodontist saw me today told me the lump was actually bone swelling not soft tissue but not to worry. Has anyone heard about this condition? Is it due to too much injected anesthesia or is it an immune response or the infection? Please advise thank you.
Avatar n tn I have a hard knot/lump on my lower right jaw bone behind my wisdom tooth which is still there. I noticed it yesterday and it makes it hard to close my mouth or eat on that side and it's painful. I just wanted to know if anyone might know what it could be. I have jaw pain from time to time which makes my wisdom tooth ache because I have TMJ, so my doctor told me last year. If anyone has any ideas let me know.
5792451 tn?1390934690 Nope. I can't feel any lumps inside my mouth. The lump on my jaw is literally on my jaw line in the very corner.
Avatar n tn On the upper it is usually on the palate and is called a torus palatinus. On the lower they usually occur on the inside of the lower jaw and is called torus mandibularis. These are normal out growths of the bone. There is no treatment necessary for them.
Avatar m tn Okay I asked about this like 2 years ago and kinda forgot about it and it hasnt bothered me since! And all of a sudden I've worried about it again! I have a node/gland on each side of my jaw! If you look at a diagram of where the nodes/glands are its kinda where the submandibular glands are on each side! It's literally identical on both sides too! If I push up under my jaw behind where my teeth are sort of thing!
Avatar f tn I have just found a lump on my lower jaw, underneath my ear right at the jaw joint. It is approximately the size of half of a grape. It definitely feels attached to my jaw feels like s grape- not too hard or soft. It is slightly uncomfortable when felt. Any ideas of what this might be? I am going to go ahead see an ENT- but I have month and a half before I could get in. Just a little concerned. Thank you for any help!
5887486 tn?1376104591 Hi, just last night, I was laying in bed, and rolled to my right side, and as I turned my head over on my pillow, I noticed it was painful. Today. I've noticed it all day, there is a slight lump on the right side under my jaw. It is moveable, and isn't excruciating just yet. When I apply pressure, or face my head downwards, it gets very sore. I am very curious to know if this is heard of commonly or not, and if it is a serious problem. Thank you!
Avatar f tn I'm a 16 year old male. I was itching my neck like right behind my right jaw bone and I noticed a small pea sized lump. You cant see it but if you press on it you can feel it. Could this be lymphoma?
