Increased Swelling 2 Months after Surgery

Everything seemed to be going ok and swelling seemed to be going down little by little but overnight there is severe swelling on the right side of my lower jaw. And it feels tender to the touch and hard. I went to see my doctor and he took xrays and is "puzzled" at what the issue is. He's ...
