View Full Version : Abscess on jaw?
Somebody at work told me It looks like I have an Absess along my law line. Just on one side of the cheek. I have nothing sore but I told my mum and she noticed and said the same. They said it's like a lump but I notice nothing.
Do I need to worry, they are saying doctors and stuff will I be ok? :ohmy: :blush:

Phil generally abcesses are really really painful.
Does it hurt when you press it?
You should have it checked out if it is painful or lasts for more than a few days but I would not worry too much about it.
Call NHS direct and speak to a nurse. They will tell you if you need to see a doctor and they are open 24 hours a day.
Thanks.
No nothing painful just people making me worry. I suppose I'd know if it was painful.
Just a comment someone made at work and then I said to my mum she agreed and said I need a doctor. I can't see why. :wacko:
I am still a bit worried by this.
I started googling last night and found all sorts gum disease and mumps and abscesses.
I am sure they come with symptoms but maybe it's a normal swelling and will go? Any ideas? I don't seem to have any symptoms. :shrug:

DO NOT GOOGLE!
How about you call NHS direct? Speak to a nurse and she will tell you what you should do...
