The signs and symptoms of<unk>  depend upon the severity, and are variable: * Pain, which gets worse as the condition develops and becomes severe. The pain may be throbbing and radiate to the ear, throat, temporomandibular joint, posterior submandibular region and floor of the mouth. There may also be pain when biting. Sometimes the pain disturbs sleep. * Tenderness, erythema (redness) and edema (swelling) of the tissues around the involved tooth, which is usually partially erupted into the mouth. The operculum is characteristically very painful when pressure is applied. *Halitosis resulting from the bacteria putrefaction of proteins in this environment releasing malodorous volatile sulfur compounds. * Bad taste or sour taste in the mouth from exudation of pus. * Intra-oral halitosis. * Formation of pus, which can be seen exuding from beneath the operculum (i.e. a pericoronal abscess), especially when pressure is applied to the operculum. * Signs of trauma on the operculum, such as indentations of the cusps of the upper teeth, or ulceration. Rarely, the soft tissue around the crown of the involved tooth may show a similar appearance to necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis. * Trismus (difficulty opening the mouth). resulting from inflammation/infection of the muscles of mastication. * Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). * Cervical lymphadenitis (inflammation and swelling of the lymph nodes in the neck), especially of the submandibular nodes. * Facial swelling, and rubor, often of the cheek that overlies the angle of the jaw. * Pyrexia (fever). * Leukocytosis (increased white blood cell count). * Malaise (general feeling of being unwell). * Loss of appetite. * The radiographic appearance of the local bone can become more radiopaque in chronic<unk> .
