[|Human|] I had a tooth abcess back in September.  I took antibiotics but never had further treatment on my tooth.  I still have a hard lump at the base of the tooth on the gum.  Is it still abcessed or is this something like scar tissue that built up in the same spot?
[|AI|]  Hello thank you for your question at Chat Doctor In this condition I would suggest my patient to have x-ray of the region. So that I can have better idea what exactly it is. At the same time I would like to know more that is that hard mass paining you now ? Second do you see any bleeding or pus discharge from it at any times. And best option will be consulted a nearby dentist so that he can see the condition clinically and give better idea. You can ask for further solution of confusion or advice. Thank you.
