Hello I had all my wisdom teeth extracted three days ago and I am experiencing severe gland swelling that makes it unbearable to swallow,also I feel like there is a lot of pressure on my right side, throbbing and this is causing me restless sleep and a lot of discomfort. All this pain is only on the right side. Should I see someone? It seems to be getting worse and I am on penicillin, codine and nurofen. Please help me.
Hello, Thanks for writing to us. The post-operative pain associated with wisdom tooth extraction is common. Extreme pain on the right side of wisdom tooth extraction May be due to- Chat Doctor. I would suggest you to gargle frequently using warm saline or Betadine rinse. Take complete course of antibiotics-analgesics. Rinse your mouth after every meal to avoid food lodgment. Avoid stressful jobs. Please do visit a dentist for further reference. Take care.
