I have a lump on the upper palate , I think I had it because I ate this hard biscuit that hits that spot. But the lump ocurred after 2 or 3 days. The pain was bearable but it radiates, and I felt like the tooth near it hurts too. I think it got a bigger than yesterday. The pain goes on so, I bought mefenamic acid for the pain and swelling . Should I visit a doctor or a dentist?
Hello, Thanks for posting your query. As you c/o pain in upper tooth, chance of decay/fracture associated with the tooth can cause such lump on hard palate. The medicines will just relieve the pain temporarily. The tooth has to be restored or root canal treated. The lump has to be Chat Doctor. I would suggest you to visit a dentist soon. Hope this helps.
