RightThe pain of T can also be a sign of cancer, it is also difficult for the common man to think. But something similar has happened to a healthy man on a 78 -year -old man. When this man went to the dentist after being disturbed by toothache on the left side in his lower jaw and its shaking.
After the checkup, the dentist said that it is a good solution to uproot the tooth for immediate relief from the pain. After removing the teeth, swelling in the jaw started increasing in a few days. After which when he went for a checkup again, it was found in the CT scan that there is a wound in the jaw, which is a metastatic prostate cancer.

Dr. Bozic said that patients may feel symptoms like frequent swelling, pain, loose of teeth without any clear reason or delay in recovering after removal of teeth. Along with this, he said that people may feel numbness or tingling in the jaw, which can be a sign of neurological problem.
