[|Human|] My son is 7 and complaining of toothache over the past week or so. He has a pea sized firm lump at the back of his lower gum and I suspect a molar erupting. Hes in a fair bit of pain and rarely complains. Should I be concerned or is the lump normal. Im worried in case if infection?
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have painful lump on the lower gum of a child is normal during time of tooth eruption. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain complete hygiene of child. You should get clinical check up done by a dentist and get a X-ray done so that it can be ruled out what is exactly causing you the lump. Do brushing a flossing regularly. Avoid intake of sticky food. Get scaling and cleaning done in that area. In case of pain take proper antibiotic course. Massage with colonel as well to increase blood flow. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
