I have a small boil like skin on my top left gum just under my lip near the vessel, can u tell me what I can do ?

Hi , after an abscess and a course of antibiotics , I finally had infected tooth removed the other day , everything is back to normal apart from my bottom lip and chin on the left side , I was wondering how long this took to clear up and feel normal .

but a week later i still have numbness on left corner of lower lip and chin! she told me originally that this was because abscess was resting on a nerve! when should i expect the numbness to go and normal feeling come back?

I have this large bump on the inside of my vagina lip. It isn't inside though. I tried to squeeze it to see if puss came out and a bit of puss did. It hurts like a zit would to the touch. My mom says it is a pimple but I don't know. How do I get rid of it and what is it?

numbness in chin and lip on the left side of my face. I have been on antibiotics for 3.5 days so far and the pain is gone but my face is still numb. I did not get novocaine or anything- it is from the abscess itself.. When will this go away and the sensation return to my face?

My lower lip has swollen up over the top lip. I have nothing that looks like an abscess, but symptoms are very familiar to me. Also, feverish, sore throat and dry mouth.

I woke up on monday morning in extreme pain and with a completely swollen top lip, stretched nose and puffy cheek. Having no idea what was wrong I went to the doctors and was put on amoxcillin (they weren't sure what was wrong as the abscess isn't visible, it is really high up under my lip and quite large).

This was around 7 months ago. Since then, my lower lip on the right side has been swollen. My checks also swell sometimes on the inside. This has been going on and off for around 6 months. The lip swelling goes down but never really goes away completely. The cheek swelling is the same as it comes and goes but is always somewhat puffy and swollen still. No real pain, just annoying. I'd say pain is around a 2/10 and when everything swells alot, Maybe a 3/10.

Recently found a swelling on the lip of my vagina and it a bit painful when i sit. it is the size is 2 inches.

Okay i woke up this morning with pain in the gum. I looked in the mirror and my abscess grew in size. Before it was small and now it's well really big. It hurts when i press down on it and there's puss coming out of it. Oh and my upper lip is swollen. I'm not sure what to do now. The dentist is closed due to really bad snow. I could try calling up other dentist and see if there open. Though the nearest one is 13 mins away. I've been rinsing my mouth out with salt water.

also, it hurts when I touch or push or bother the lump...which I can't bring myself to stop.

You need to run a test for moniliasis to rule this out. It could also be due to caries in tooth, abscess in gums, pyorrhea, abscess in cheek, or infection of internal ear. It could also be due to osteomyelitis of the jaw bone or due to involvement of temporomandibular joint. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. You would need to consult a dentist and an ENT specialist for this. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

I have had numbness on the left side of my bottom lip and it runs down to the left side of my chin I had a really big knot on the left side of my face when I went to the er the dr there told me that it was something called tic along with dental problems for me to see my dentist after they did a ct .

he took his little mirror and looked at the roof of his mouth and ordered xrays (yes he did ahve a cavity) he also had a huge lump on his roof of his mouth. he said it was an abscess and that it needs to be dealt with. Chris lost his 4 upper teeth due to the abscess(they think it was from one of the times he was on a ventalator and that is why he wouldn't let us brush his teeth. I would give her dentist a call first thing monday morning.

I can see were she bite her lip but didn't notice it until just now

my lip and part o my cheek are swollen. Is this some kind of allergic reaction or should go to the emergency room?

the next day my lip was swollen right under the area I felt the pimple coming up. as the day went on my lip got bigger, but I did not feel any irritation on my lip, it felt more like a pimple growing behind it. By tthe time I got home my lip was huge, thus making me go to the hospital that night. when the doctor looked at it, she determined it to be an abcess. it was more like one big huge bump on my lip or my lip just looked swollen.

A couple of years ago I had fillings done on my two front teeth. I have had no injuries to my mouth or face. Since then, I have had maybe 3 or 4 occurrences of the following specific set of symptoms: I wake up one day with one or both front teeth feeling a bit tender & slightly hurting. It's mild. The following morning, the pain is gone, but my upper lip is swollen, and the swelling lasts for a few days then eventually subsides.

Ive been, for the last 2 weeks, having some pain/sensaions on the inside of my left thigh. (the abscess is on the left side of my perineum) and some odd pain/sensations in my penis. This has been pretty much constant for the last month+. For a little bit after my risk, my wife had an itchy vulva, not constant but usually between her periods. No other symptoms. She stopped taking her birth control and it subsided. Today she has a sore throat, says its pretty bad.

Judging by your description, it is most likely a fistula which is a tract that forms from the abscess of your infected tooth that escapes out to the gums. As long as the fistula in intact, your abscess can drain and slow down the spread of the abscess but if the fistula closes up, the abscess can spread rapidly through your face or neck area. I would recommend seeing a dentist and getting treatment started.

My grandmother had an abscess tooth, it was treated with a root canal and currently it's been three weeks after the treatment, and she's still feeling extreme pain and numbess in her lower jaw-half of her chin and lip. Her lymph glands are very swollen. She's taking an antibiotic but needs to know if there's any type of emergency fix because her next appointment isn't until next Thursday and she wants to know if there is any alternative, faster treatment for this.

There were a few things that could of caused this but about a month before I had a HUGE abscess on the back of my leg right on my *** cheek. The urgent care doctor I visited seen it was one of the worst he had ever seen, gave me a shot and medication to take and within 4-5 days it wasn't bothering me anymore but there is still a red bump where it happened. I am very concerned with my nose as it is really starting to hurt and it seems to be getting more swollen as the day progresses.

And it hurts him between his cheek and gum if touched or pushed on lightly. And now his bottom lip is swollen. He does have a silver colored filling near the area. Any answers?

Do any of your teeth hurt? Sounds like you have an infection or abscess. If an abscess in the teeth goes unattended the infection will spread into the jaw and cause a lump. You need to get checked out ASAP!! If left untreated, the infection will spread into your blood stream.

3 days ago I competed in a bicycle race (not sure if this is connected to my situation) and a few hours after the event I noticed a small lump on my buttocks quite close to my anus. It was soar to the touch but otherwise no bother. The next morning when I woke up it doubled in sized. By the afternoon it grew to about 2 inches in length and 1 inch wide. It is firm to the touch and seems to be located a little bit under my skin but not so deep that I can not feel it well.

ve picked up cycling about 40-50 miles per week along with strenuous training and noticed a solo abscess on my labia after a cycle session where I had tight fitting underwear. I popped the abscess and some white fluid came out, and it's still raised but steadily getting smaller with neosporin application. I have never had sex and the last time oral happened was late 2013.
