Avatar n tn Hi, I am a 20 year old male. I have had a hard lump behind my right ear for years now...at least 4 or 5. It feels like part of my skull but it is not on the left side of my head so i know that it's not. I asked my doctor about it when i was younger and he said it was a swollen lymph node and should go away at some point. It never did, however, it also never caused me any discomfort so i never got it looked at again.

Avatar f tn t have gingivitus and had my teeth cleaned 3 months ago when the hygienist remarked that my gums looked great except for some receeding near a permanent retainer on my bottom front teeth. All of a sudden my bottom gum on the backside below my front teeth is red, inflamed, and feels like it has a big swollen lump. My dentist says maybe some food got caught below the gum and tried to dig some out of there. This is excrutiatingly painful and making my whole lower jaw/teeth throb.

Avatar n tn I usually prescribe Kenalog in orabase for canker sores. It is a prescription item. It is a topical steriod and I have found it very helpful.
Avatar n tn I recently injured the top of my mouth (from eating hard cereal) right behind my front teeth. It is now swollen and the swelling extends right behind my teeth through to the front. Everytime I bite down I hit the swelling with my bottom teeth so chewing is almost impossible. It gets worse at night since it is probably being bumped all night.
Avatar f tn My dog is a five year old dachshund mix. He suddenly developed a lump on his left cheek. I took him to the vet and they prescribed antibiotics for him. The vet poked it with a needle and said no fluid or blood came out which was a good sign. However, he keeps throwing up the meds and it seems like the lump has moved downwards some and seems more spend out. After reading about the cancers etc.on here I'm freaking out. Please let me know what I should do next.

Avatar n tn A part of my gums is swollen and red. There are black specks on it. I don't know what it is. It's located beside my front teeth behind them. I tried looking it up but all i got was sexual diseases such as herpes. I have never had intercourses so it can't be that. What is going on?

Avatar f tn The bumps are still visible. My gums are still swollen and irritated at the front two teeth to the point where my bottom teeth are hitting my top gum (I have a serious overbite). To compound this, after I'd seen my family doctor, my gums became very sore on my right side directly behind my molar. It hurts to chew there and is more irritated on the bottom jaw than in the upper jaw. With my tongue I can feel a fairly hard lump in the location where my wisdom tooth would have been.
125112 tn?1217273862 First of all, will state that I have had issues pertaining to my hormones for quite some time. This will be looked into further. Anyway. A few months ago, I ate a corndog w/mustard and the next day, found behind my lower front teeth a thin layer of skin was removed. They've been tender since. Again, recently, another layer came off (newly formed one). It's sensitive. Just behind my upper front teeth is sensitive too.

Avatar m tn Hey recently, I got rash behind my right ear which caused a small lump to form behind it (I have eczema and I get lumps behind ears every year some are painful so not worried about it). However, a few days ago, I noticed that my right neck was slightly harder than the left one. So I spend hours and hours trying to check if I have lymph nodes.
Avatar n tn Doctor, For the past 5 months or so I have noticed a small lump behind my left ear. This bump is on the bonde behind the ear (NOT the front of the face). The lump is hard, fixed, and not movable. It causes me no pain, and is about the size of a small pea. I have been playing with it lately, and do not think it has changed it size, and if it has it has been very minimal.
Avatar n tn Hi, I a whitish looking patch behind my last molar on my left side. it is swollen and I can feel the tension when I bite down from my teeth on top. My wisdom tooth is the one in front of the white patch. My wisdom tooth is pulled to the front from my braces after losing a tooth from a previous accident. Thank you for your help. Btw I just went to the dentist for a clean literally two days ago and dentist said my teeth are fine. Swollen gums started today. http://tinypic.
Avatar f tn The lump behind your ear could be swollen/infection from wisdom teeth coming in. And you could be noticing everything else that is normal or stress related, because you have yourself so worked up. Cancer is a very worrisome burden to be keeping to yourself. I hope you have someone to talk to. You should be checked out as soon as possible to rule out all the possibilities. I hope everything works out for you. Best of luck.
Avatar f tn My 18 yr old son has a couple bad canker sores one on side of tongue one right on top of mouth right behind front teeth. Our Dr. prescribed an ointment over phone for him yesterday and it is helping the one on his tongue but his gums are still really swollen on the top so much so it coming through his front 2 teeth. I am hoping he just needs another couple days on medicine. Has anyone else ever experienced this? He is worried it isn't going to shrink back to normal.
Avatar n tn I had four teeth pulled in upper front December 24, 2014. I still cannot wear my partials as they will not go up on gums. I think my dentist is not telling me the truth. He says it might take 5 or 6 months. Also the tooth next to my eye tooth which was crowned before extraction is breaking off at gum. I believe he made crown too large therefore crowding the tooth out between that eye tooth and the one behind it. Have got appt. to see him next week. Don't know what to do.
Avatar f tn I have recently found a lump behind each ear. They appeared pratically overnight One is larger than the other one and are very sore to touch. I also have found I have one on top of my head which only small but again sore. I've been having problems with my teeth and have an abcess I need to get sorted, and thought maybe these lumps could be connected to that, but I'm not really sure. Any idea's on what they could be?
12934254 tn?1427839628 Right now my gums at the top behind my front teeth are swollen. They looks like swollen bumps. It happens to me every pregnancy because of the hormones and baby taking all of my nutrients from my teeth. Maybe thats what is going on with you?
Avatar f tn A root canal is a rather simple procedure, especially on front teeth. They are much easier than people think (not the dreaded thing everyone claims them to be). The dentist should get you numb, and after that everything is painfree. After, you should feel no pain, and the only discomfort you might feel would be from the healing bone where the body is still fighting the infection outside the tooth. If your tooth is mostly intact, there is no reason the dentist would need to remove it.
