Hello,I had my right, top and bottom wisdom teeth removed six days ago. The surgery went well but the pain is still pretty bad 6 days later. The pain is mostly coming from my remaining molars biting the inside of my cheeks/gums which have become swollen around the extraction site. The gums around the bottom extraction site, where the stitches are, are extremely sore (it almost feels like a bubble when I touch it with my tongue), and have turned white. Once again, it is extremely painful because I keep on biting down on the area with my remaining molars. Is there anything I can do to lessen the swelling? I will be getting my stitches removed in 2 days. Thanks for your response!
Hi mo thanks for asking your query. Complications like pain, swelling and Erasmus are anticipated after third molar extraction follow post op instructions completely gargle with saline water twice a day for one week it will promote healing maintain good oral hygiene take antibiotics and analgesics for subsiding infection, swelling and pain. Avoid touching the stitches with tongue, and biting your mucosafollow these instructions completely thanks
