abscess

Avatar n tn This morning I was petting him and found crustiness under his chin. It was a dried scab sort of thing. I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and salt water. It's a hole like a pimple. It's a lump too. Only blood was on the qtip, nothing yellow. I checked his teeth, they all look ok. I can't see under his tongue. He's been acting normally, eating hard and soft food, going to the bathroom, etc.
Avatar m tn They never completely went they just shrunk to about 4mm across, but a couple of days they became quite big. Swollen on my left side of my neck, 3 under my chin and under both armpits it hurts to turn my neck shallow and I can't put my arms flush to my side because of the glands in my armpits hurt so much. Over half a year since I first noticed them.
Avatar f tn Lymph nodes can be found in a variety of places in the body including the neck and under the jaw and chin. These can become swollen from infection, inflammatory conditions, abscess, or even cancer. When swelling appears suddenly and is painful, injury or an infection ( which is the most common cause) may be considered. On the other hand, enlargement that comes on gradually and painlessly may, in some cases, result from malignancy.
459853 tn?1283140514 It is also possible it could be an abscess caused perhaps by some cut or puncture wound. Can you see anything on her skin under the fur? If she is fighting something like that she will not feel 100% My feeling is that you should take her for the vet to look at her, to be on the safe side. Especially as it does seem to be affecting her breathing.
Avatar m tn My cat has a fluid pocket under his chin that keeps refilling when drained. We have drained it twice now about a week apart. It has no odor and is clear, mucus type fluid. It doesn't seem to hurt him. He eats and drinks normal. Has no discharge or bad odor to his breath. No sneezing or coughing. Any ideas???
Avatar f tn I'm taking clidamycin 300 mg every 6 hours and tramadol 50 mg every 6 hours (unless i'm a work it makes me sleepy) and the pain from my tooth abscess has gotton worse and now the swelling is spreding and my throat hurts. The pain from the tooth abscess has spred from the far left cornor of my jaw to my ear and even under my chin. I can't see a denist till next week and this is only getting worse. I already went to the er that is how i got these meds.
Avatar m tn Since you say that your chinchilla is damp and has matting under the chin, I highly recommend that you seek out some professional help. They can give him a physical exam to make sure that he doesn't have anything obstructed in his mouth, have teeth issues, or other underlying health problems. A chinchilla with a tooth abscess can be in so much misery that he may rub away his fur near his mouth and also on the arms.
Avatar n tn 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?
Avatar n tn Hi there, I had my left wisdom tooth extracted 4 days ago. My cheek is still very swollen and the swelling has spread right across under my chin. There's an area on my cheek thats quite hard when touched and painful. Still finding it difficult to open my mouth and my gums also seem to be aching off and on. Could this be an infection?
Avatar f tn 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 .
Avatar f tn Last night I began to feel pain under my left armpit. I examined the area and don't feel any lumps below the skin but I don't see any obvious ingrown hairs or irritations either. How would I know whether this is a swollen lymph node or something more superficial? Thanks so much in advance.
Avatar f tn Today I have pain where gum meets the lip. My chin, cheek and jaw have become painfully inflamed. 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.
Avatar f tn t notice that she developed this condition until I felt the scab under her chin. Then I noticed how distorted that side of her jaw has become. Life has been really hectic lately. I feel just terrible and I'm sure she must be in terrible pain as well. Is there anything I can give her just to help her with pain? This may indeed finally be the end for her and I just don't want her to suffer.
Avatar n tn To make a long story short, I have been to doctors 7 times since tooth extraction for aches face, jaw, neck, ears clogging, upper left arm aching, swollen glands under chin, as well as two chest colds, and also diagnosed with sinusitis. I am now on my 5th round of antibotics in 8 months. And each time I finish I feel good for a week or two and the symptoms return.
Avatar m tn UNDER MY CHIN TO THE LEFT A BIT I FEEL A TINY LUMP, DOENST MOVE, AN DOESNT HURT, ADN I HAVENT BEEN SICK WHATSOEVER AND I JUST FUND IT TODAY, KIND OF WORREIS ME. ANY IDEAS WHAT I MAY BE. I OF XOURSE THINK OF CANCER RIGHT AWAY?
Avatar n tn The trapezius is a major neck muscle that holds the head upright. Trapezius lifts or shoulder shrugs with handheld weights are designed to work your trapezius. Trapezius lifts tone and strengthen the muscles. Start by standing tall with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms at your side. Hold dumbbells with your palms facing forward and raise your shoulders toward the ears. Hold the lift for one or two seconds and then release. Do three sets of 15 repetitions each.
Avatar f tn I recently noticed that when I put my chin to my chest, I could feel a lump or something on the left side of under my jawbone. I felt around, and I can't really feel anything unusual when my head is upright. Or rather, I can feel something smooth there, but I think I always had it on both sides. But when I tilt my head forwards and poke my fingers underneath my jawbone I can feel a small lump that I can "move" to the chin side of my jawbone quite easily.
978175 tn?1304439383 Re: lump under chin, I would go straight to the dr. get a blood test for EBV and be referred to an ENT. If you live in the country go to the city, don't mess around with this or wait too long. It's always better to be safe than sorry. this if speaking from experience. I pray you'll be okay.
Avatar n tn I'm 22 years old and I've recently noticed a lump that is about 1 cm in diameter under my chin, back towards the neck. It seems to be round. I first noticed it because my neck felt tender and the ear on that same side ached slightly. You can't notice it by looking. To feel the lump you have to push up under the chin near the neck, and then it pops out. I'm able to move the lump to my jawline. It's very, very mobile.
Avatar f tn This is quite weird..I have a nodule (not big) half under my nipple and half out..I think it will be an abscess soon..have you ever had that? I wonder how it will drain by itself....I mean on what part of the skin.... Thanks!
Avatar f tn On Jan. 16 I woke up with this awful pimple/abscess on my chin. I left it alone all day, and it got worse. When I came home I cleaned it. (I've posted picture of the progression on my profile/album). Since then, I still have a lump on my face that won't go away. It hasn't changed in size at all and I don't know what to do about it. Any ideas on what may be going on and/or what I can do about it? I've tried pimple cream but it didn't work. Thanks!

Avatar n tn hi, i have this small lump looked under my eyebrow. It reminds me of a pimple, it hurts when i touch it and sometimes itches. It comes and goes and is always in the same spot, but never any zit forms. when i was getting my eyebrows waxed a couple of months ago i had it and the lady doing them seemed to have some type of concern about it. i know she is not a doctor but it made me think It was there for a couple weeks then left and now its back again. These arent the first times i have had it.
Avatar m tn m in my 20s, a little over a year ago I developed swollen lymph nodes under my chin, jaw, and back of neck. I just noticed all 5 nots basically go in a circular line-meaning I can put my finger on a swollen lymph node and basically run my finger in a circle around my head and touch all the swollen nodes without taking my finger out of line. A few months ago a co-worker told me his glands under his chin swelled because of mouth infections.
Avatar f tn 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 .
Avatar m tn The tract could be a perianal fistula, if it is oozing fluid. It could also be a perianal abscess, this is usually accompanied by severe pain and fever. If it is an abscess it needs to be drained. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn If however the cyst was infected or inflamed it can cause an infection and may eventually abscess. Some abscess can become serious and cause septicemia (blood infection). In either case it would be best to have your cat examined by a vet in case it is the infectious type.
