my jaw has been swollen for the past 4 months and it keeps getting worse day by day is surgery the only option or are there other treatments that could help
Swollen jaw pain is often treatable without surgery. If the swelling is caused by a dental problem (like an abscess or periodontal disease), antibiotics or dental procedures (root canal, extraction, etc.) might be needed. If it's due to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues, treatments like physical therapy, medication, or a night guard can help. If the swelling is caused by a tumor or cancer, surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy might be necessary. It's crucial to see a doctor or dentist to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
