Hi All,
I have recently had a tooth removed and an implant inserted. The was swelling which I thought was from the tooth but the dentist said it was a lymph node as nothing showed up on the xray. He gave me antibiotics for the implant and the node went down, but now that the antibiotics have stopped the node is swollen again and hardish. It is on the right side of my face along the jaw bone and has been swollen again for about 2 weeks.
Does anyone know what could be causing it, and is it something to worry about?
All responses greatly appreciated as I'm getting really stressed out by it!!!!
