Hi. I have 8month old baby. Has one bottom tooth and doesn t look like any more coming soon. I found little lump on his jaws on his chin. Peas size , hard. I was wondering if this might be some problems with his another bottom tooth, which is not growing properly or so inflammatory? Would be very happy for your advise

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The lump can be because of an erupting tooth. Nothing to be panic, consult a pediatric dental surgeon and get it evaluated. We can take a radiograph to confirm the diagnosis.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
