Hello.  My other three wisdom teeth (top and bottom left) have all come in straight and I have not needed to have them removed but my lower right wisdom tooth is cutting through the gums right now and for the past 9 days, I have experienced some aching near the site.  (Nothing too severe, mostly just a dull ache.)For the past 5 days, I have had some pus oozing out from underneath the gum where the wisdom tooth is erupting.  The pain is mostly gone, but I am wondering what I can do to bring the bad-tasting/ smelling pus flow to a halt.  I do no feel the need to go to the dentist or doctor since it appears to be improving day by day.What would your suggestions be?  Do I require antibiotics for this minor infection?Thank you!
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, According to your symptoms I suppose that you have developed infection at the site of extraction this could be due to food lodgment or there could be presence of any broken root piece an x-ray of the region is required. At home take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses. Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics. Avoid consumption of hot and spicy foodstuffs. Hope you find this as helpful, Regards.
