Suggest Treatment For Swollen Lump In Neck With Pain In Mouth

I have a small knot that came up yesterday on the back if my head on the right side. It got a little bigger today and plus it didn t hurt at all except now it feels a little swollen. Plus, at the same time my whole right side of my mouth feels like fire. It is like one tooth ache turned into unbearable pain. What to do??

Hi

Welcome to HCM

It seems to me that the swollen lump in the throat is probably because of tooth infection. This will resolve with the treatment of the tooth infection. The treatment is in the form of oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs along with local treatment for the tooth infection in consultation with a dentist.
Do consult your dental doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
