[|Human|] Sir, I am having minor swelling on the left side of palatoglossal arch. It is persisting for over three months. whenever i eat cold things like ice cream, or spicy food it gets more inflamed & start curing very slowly but never completely. I have gone for medical checkup but nothing worked. please help me out what can be the cause for such symptoms.
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Usually swelling on the palate occurs due to spread of infection from the tooth into periapical tissues. A thorough clinical as well as radiological evaluation of the affected area is necessary to rule out the cause of infection. Pus has to be Chat Doctor. If there is deep caries of associated tooth, root canal treatment has to be done. If there is periodontal infection, scaling , root planning as well as curettage has to be done. I would suggest you to take ciprofloxacin antibiotic along with analgesics. Visit a dentist for further reference. I wish you speedy recovery. Take care.
