[|Human|] I recently had and abscess on my gums that spread to my cheek due to an infection from a broken tooth. I wen to the Er and and it drained. They put me on antibiotics and painkillers but my cheek is harder than ever and doesnt seem like it healing. What can be the problem? Should I go back to the Er?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The firmness or hardness of the cheek can be secondary to the infection which is getting localized. Nothing to be panic, Complete the course of antibiotics preferably amoxicillin and metronidazole combination(if you are not allergic). You can take anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Once you complete the course of antibiotics get the tooth treated. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
