Moving ball in my jaw

2021-12-29 06:36:06
I can feel a moving ball like thing in my right side of jawline. When i touch it, i can spot it and move it with my fingers. But after a minute it vanishes away. Then after sometimes if i touch i can spot it at times. It is painless. I did have pain in my wisdom tooth which was in the process of coming out, in the right lower side. Is it something to be scared of? That moving ball like thing in jaw? What is it?

It seems more like a lymphnode which might have got enlarged due to the pain you had in the right jaw. But this requires physical examination.
Next Steps
you can consult a doctor near by for complete examination.
