lump on hard palate

Answered by a doctor

I was hoping for some expert opinions about a lump on the hard palate. What could this be? Do you have any useful resources? I am particularly interested in one of those checklists where you can look at symptoms and get a diagnosis, if you know what I am talking about?

Bump on gum after wisdom tooth extraction

Answered by a doctor

I had 5 wisdom teeth removed at once two and a half weeks ago. They're healing up nicely, except the site where I had two. There seems to be a bump on gums. It hurts. The tooth next to the extraction site, where the bump is, also hurts when I press on it. I'm worried its an infection.
