hi im 16 years old about 5"7 and weigh around 150. i know i shouldnt, but i dipped some tabacco 2 days ago and a white sore formed in between my gum and teeth..what im more worried about though is that today i noticed an average size lump underneath my right side jaw. do you know what this could be?
Hi, Dear don't worry. I understood your health concerns.-You suffer from acute sub mandibular lymphadenitis due to oral infected tobacco ulcer you had.-Don't worry about that lump to be Cancerous lump, as its infective lump. Tratment- I would treat it as follows -- tb NSAID x5 days antibiotics from Er doctor or GP.x5 days.- bland liquid diet for 1 WK- no hot tea or Chat Doctor. - Byte gel locally 2 times a day. This would resolve the lump and oral ulcers in 1.5 was time. Hope this attends your query.-Welcome to Chat Doctor for any more help you need.
