My husbad has had to go to the Hospital/ Er a few times due to a recurring problem with his jaw having tons of small fractures . (Caused from boxing earlyer years). The first time it happened he went to the dentist , for the pain and swelling he had on the side of jaw. they gave him antibiotics and pain killers but a day later we rushed him to the hospital because he was going into shock and having trouble breathing from either the infection or I m not quite sure. I know they said that even the pressure from grinding his teeth could cause it. I wanted to get some information regarding jaw fractures, risks, and recurring health problems.
HI DEAR PATIENT, JAW BONE FRACTURE IS NOT TREATED ONLY WITH THE ANTI-BIOTIC AND PAIN KILLERS, IF YOU ARE CONFIRMED WITH THE JAW FRACTURE, THEN YOU MUST CONSULT A MAXILLOFACIAL SURGEON FOR THIS, THE CASE WILL BE INVESTIGATED AS CHRONIC ONE AND THERE WILL BE NEEDED FEW IMPORTANT RADIOGRAPHY INCLUDING, OPG, CEP AND PER APICAL VIEW OF FRONTAL ASPECT OF FACE BONES. SO I WILL SUGGEST YOU TO GET The LATEST ADVICE FROM A MAXILLOFACIAL SURGEON. REGARDS
