[|Human|] I have a wisdom tooth on the right side that is swollen and it hurts. I also have a bump that is right next to my bottom jaw on the inside. It too hurts when I push it, along with slight tenderness along the jaw bone. I have been cleaning the swollen tooth and rinsing my mouth with warm salt water. This seems to be slowly working for my tooth. But, I was wondering do the lump and swollen wisdom tooth have a connection? Thank you for your time!
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The Lump, swollen gums and pain could be because of the gum infection around the wisdom tooth, it can be because of inadequate space for the wisdom tooth to erupt or trauma from the opposing tooth. Consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule the amount of space present for the tooth to erupt if space is there for the tooth to erupt then the gum covering over the wisdom tooth can be removed. If the space is not available then you have to get the wisdom tooth removed. You can take a course of antibiotics and analgesics like amoxicillin 500 mg and metronidazole 400 mg TID for 5 days. Do saline gargling. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
