Bad breath can often be the first sign of a disease. But how do doctors define bad breath and what are the major causes of bad breath?...

I had my wisdom teeth removed in feb 05. A lump appeared in my cheek immediately after surgery. Went back to the doctor he said he removed some infection, but the lump never went away.
Now it has become more painful and there is redness on my skin over the lump. It has also grown in size.
I don't think its an abcess because it is not on my gum line at all. It is inside my cheek on the jawline.

Please help!!!!
