Abscess tooth

On Friday my tooth was aching, Saturday my cheek has lump like the size of a golf ball, now under my jaw and neck are puffy. has anyone stuffered a abscess with their neck swelling right under the jaw area and live to talk about it?

Also my jaw is very sore from this abscess. how long does it take to get rid of the swelling?

It should go down after a while, it it doesnt speak to your dentist.
