Question: What do you think this bump in my jaw is.? .?
In my lower left jaw area theirs this little bump. You can't see it from looking at me but if I try to feel it I can. I can move it a little but in each direction. Do you think this is just a lymph node or could it be something more serious. Should I go to the doctor. I'm only 15 years old. I'm really freaked out. Please help. Health Question & Answer
Answers:
It is most likely it is just normal underlying tissue. I have the same things around my jaw and feel tissue changes all the time in my patients. In the absence of discomfort or pain it is highly UNLIKELY that this is dangerous. You can play with and check some thing like this and irritate it so be careful. You might make this sore just by checking it all the time. Tell your parents and have it checked. Five minutes at the dentist will probably save you sleepless nights and needless worry.Health Question & Answer
