What Is The Treatment For Root Canal Infection?
Hi, I am a 18 year old female. I have recently had 2 root canals and a tooth extraction because of infection. Is it normal to have a small pea sized bump on the back right side of my head close to the top of my ear? The tooth extraction was on the left side. It doesn't hurt at all and I only just noticed it today.

Hi, thanks for consulting HCM. As per your complaint, the small bump which u mentioned is not related to your tooth infection. It may be a lymph node due to a ear infection or allergy. Notice if it is growing bigger in size, if so consult a doctor immediately.
