Lump in jaw

2023-06-08 04:07:00
Sir, I have a swelling in the neck just below rt jaw area. The lump is painful and it swells up while chewing. This occurred yesterday only. Also, since then the frenulum of my tongue has swelled up. After taking paracetamol pain subsided, now a bit discomfort. Is there something to worry abt.
