Hey, weekend was alrite, I didn't have to go to the ER, my fear was bigger than my fever. I was getting cold/hot flashes and a lot of worry of what might be happening to me, no fever above 37.5C. Anyhow, she saw me again today, the lump doesn't seem to be a lump anymore, and its less tender when she touched it. We saw the x-ray together, show no signs of infection, abscess etc.

Her opinion is to take muscle relaxants for one more week and if I still feel that swollen thing on my face (it's a feeling I got, its not really swollen anymore, maybe VERY little compared to the other side) she will open my gum or take liquid sample off it to see what it is. She thinks that if it is an infection it will grow again, if not, its a muscle spasm cause its at a point between my jaw and my gum a lot of muscles meet she said.

So, what is your opinion in all this? Should I be worried for osteo? Its been 4.5 weeks after my surgery, won't it have appeared on the x-ray by now?
