Should I go to ER to have cyst looked at
What do I do once I realize I have a large cyst on my jaw from a decaying, untreated abscess tooth that already had to drain the abscess on gum next to tooth but never got to pull tooth due to hurricane Irma shutting everything down for over a wk! Now it's coming back but it's formed a cyst on my jaw that's gotten bigger over last wk or two

Unfortunately the biology of the body does not depend upon weather conditions. You should have taken the treatment Before any natural calamity or immediately after it subsided. You need to get an xray called as OPG done to evaluate the extent of the cyst and an oral surgeon will be required to remove the cyst so that your symptoms can be alleviated permanently. Regards.
