painful lump on upper left neck

by mliss229, Jul 19, 2009 03:27PM
4 weeks ago I had an old filling removed & replaced. For the 1st few days after this I could only open my mouth about 1/2 inch. For 3 weeks could open my mouth but with pain.  1 week ago I had my Thyroid removed. Now I have a very painful lump on the upper left side of my neck, below jaw bone. I have a lot of hot sweats, day & night, & also get goose bumps if too cold.  Not sure if this lump is related to past dental work or thyroidectomy??

Going back to your surgeon to evaluate the neck bump is advisd.In addition, seeing a tmj specialist is advised.
