Swollen lump inside mouth

2024-07-03 05:51:50
I am having a swollen lump kind of on the inside side of my cheeks. I think it maybe a result of contraction from my wisdom tooth(this was told initially ) by the doctor. But now he is suggesting it's a cyst and must be operated. Though it does not pain What to do?

A dentist wouldn't randomly suggest without proof. But yes if you have doubts you have a right to second opinion. 
Next Steps
Get an OPG done alongwith a X Ray of the exact region where cyst is being suggested. Get that done elsewhere as the dentist might enquire or question the reason.
Health Tips
Add those OPG and x ray pics
