Gum Swollen After Apicoectomy, Normal? (photo)

Question

Follow up to previous question. I know that this might be what it looks like but will it look like this forever? Will my right side of my gum get back to normal? I don't even eat popcorn because I am afraid of puncturing the gum. Is that possible? I have attached a picture. I hope that helps.

What was shown in your image is normal healing following your treatment. However, if you begin to experience throbbing or the tissue feels hot, please contact the treating doctor.

No, its not normal, because its a round swelling, its not the complete area, ussually this treatments tend to fail, because the body rejects ,and the nature of your body its to have a healthy tooth,not a root cannal mutilated,tooth,so think about something as simple as an inmediate implant,this gives great results,
