Default lump remains in gum after root canal extraction

Hi Bryanna...

It's me again. I posted this before but can't find a reply so am reposting. I apologise if you did reply. I have had my lower root canaled tooth extracted(3rd from the back). Prior to extraction it had a lump in the gum. The dentist said that it would go in a few weeks. It has been 3 weeks and the lump is still there. The socket of the extraction is healing but not closed. I have no pain from the lump but I am concerned it is there. My dentist says we should wait another 2 weeks and see what happens. I don't know. What do you think.?

I appreciate your help.
