im worried this could be a dental abscess ,ive had it a few days ,can it leak?if i push on the lump there is slight pressure to my front teeth that were covered over with new teeth.
 
Hi Sam85,

It is impossible to diagnose this sort of thing over the internet. Having read through a few of your previous posts, however, I feel it is quite likely to be an abscess.
Yes they can leak but this is a good thing as it relieves the pressure.
Whilst it is true that you can get infection spreading to the brain, this is extremely rare so I would not let that worry ruin your christmas!

Best wishes

Lincoln
