Noticed a hard lump about 1 inch on between my lower jawline and cheek area. Is this normal because of swelling or something else. Currently taking Amoxicillin 500mg and Ibuprofen 600mg. Please let me know what this hard lump is, also generally on the lower side where this lump is, remains sore.
Freaking out hopefully I can get this resolved soon

Any updates here? I have a hard lump on my jaw 7 days post extractions. The nurse at my oral surgeon yesterday said she thought it was a collection of blood....so like a blood clot/hematoma deal. I have to go back again next week to recheck.
She did discover some old blood that needed to be flushed out of the extraction site.
