hi a small lump appeared about a months then disappeared about a week later about 2 weeks ago the lump came back but bigger i went to the doctors and they said that it might be an absess but i had no tooth pain with it so they put me on antibiotics it is still there the lump is the size of my full jaw on my left hand side and it is very tender to touch it is also very firm and hard i have no pain or toothache it just feels very heavy on the side of my face the lump feels like it is coming down my neck and into my cheek
