had a tooth pulled last monday and it was complicated. So I knew the pain was going to last longer. But it has gotten worse. Do believe it might be a dry socket. I am in extreme pain and even more so when air hits it. Is there a temporary solution til I get back to the dentist??
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain can be because of the inflammatory response secondary to the trauma to the lymphatics. It can also be because of the Chat Doctor. The sensitivity particularly when air enters that area is because of the exposed dentin of the next tooth to the extraction site. Nothing to be panic. Continue the same medicines. You can take painkillers like diclofenac 50\u00a0mg BID with a serratiopeptidase tablets. For the sensitivity, you can use desensitizers like strontium chloride. Apply over the teeth and leave it for a minute and brush your teeth with normal brush. Do it twice daily, for a week. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
