Treatment For Pain Due To Swollen Vein Under Jaw?
I have a swollen vein under the left side of my jaw aligned under my last tooth and it hurts considerably when touched or touched around it, it also hurts a little when i open my mouth wide. I have touched the opposite vein on my right side of my jaw and it doesn't feel swollen nor it hurts. I've had this problem for as long as I can remember.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have said that you have swelling on last tooth area dont worry it canbe due to impacted last molar or it can be due to swelling in gums due to periodontal problem ,
So you should consult dentist and get investigations done and if necessary OPG done and go for proper treatment.
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day you will get relief
Hope this will help you.
