question: I had three teeth in a row extracted about three weeks ago. About three days ago I noticed a small growth where the most forward tooth once was. It seemed like it had been healing fine but then by last night it had gotten already to the size of about a pea. It feels as if it is filled with fluid but there is no pain or infection feeling. THe dentist saw me this afternoon and prescribed me antibiotics right away saying it was an infection. I told him I was going to pop it when I got home and he said it didn t matter but when I tried to pop and drain it it only bled a lot and is still there. At this point I am wondering if this is a keloid or something like it. My tongue touches it constantly so I cant stop thinking about it. It seems as if it needs to be excised. I am supposed to get full dentures in about two months but I want my gums to heal nicely before hand and this is really got me bothered. I don t want it to keep on growing at the rate it has been. Please tell me what I should do. Thanks
