[|Human|] I have a painful lump on my lower left jaw bone. Had an x-ray done and it showed bone loss and a tumor. I have an implant at the same site. The implant seems fine. It is not loose or sore. There is no drainage or foul taste in my mouth. I just have this painful lump that never goes away. Is this something to worry about. Plus I have been very tired. M.H.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. Bone loss on the x-ray and painful lump at a spot you say go in favor of either a chronic osteomyelitis OT a cancer of the underlying tissue. Urgent evaluation by clinical examination. CT scan and most important FNAC- fine needle aspiration cytology will help to come to the final conclusion and treatment will depend upon the reports. Need of surgery is certain and do not make this late further. The role of the implant can be decided by CT scan only.
