Post-extraction wisdom teeth pain?

I had my impacted, still under the gums, wisdom teeth removed exactly 2 weeks ago. I did not have any problems following the operation, in fact, I was surprised at how ok I felt (not great, but better than expected!).





That is, until today. I have had almost unbearable pain on one side of my mouth, it includes both bottom and top teeth, the pain extends along the other teeth in that side of my mouth (beginning at the extraction site) and I have some minor swelling of that side of my face.





Any ideas what this could be? Standard painkillers don%26#039;t even touch the pain, will have to see someone about it tomorrow, I suppose...cheers! Thanks for your help.

Post-extraction wisdom teeth pain?
well u have post operative complications,,,,don worry,,start keeping ice packs on da affectd site for 20 mins,,,remove it for 10 mins,,and den again keep it for 20 mins,,till da swelling subsides....


start taking antibiotic and analgesic course,,,,don knw whether u had taken before,the extarction,,,u have to take five days course of antibiotic and three day course of imol,,,,two days before da extarction u have to satrt wid da course...

Reply:wisdom teeth extraction is a pain ful process, i sympathise but if its just one side you may have an infection there, try and see your doc today for some antibiotics
Reply:Go back to your dentist to re exmine.usually will not but unless you have foreign partical in the gum before closing the wound will cause this pain.

Reply:the best painkiller for tooth pain is solpedine,the soluble ones. you can also crush them up+rub them on your gums+ they`ll act as a anaesthetic for a while. it sound like mayde having your teeth out has triggered off an abcess,try get dentist today cos it`ll just get worse.
Reply:You have an infection. You need to go to your regular doctor and ask for antibiotics..dont worry about going back to the dentist. they will not be able to take a look until the infection is gone. The best antibiotic that works really well for dental infections and soft tissue infections is KEFLEX.. it is available in liquids which i find works faster than the pills. to get the liquid, just tell your doctor that you cannot open you mouth wide and you are nauseous so she will give you the liquid prescription. Also keep a spit cup handy because if you start to have a bitter/stank taste in your mouth then an abcess has popped somewhere in your mouth and you must spit. If that happens also have listerine handy to disinfect your mouth. you should also sleep on your side, not your back incase one ruptures in your sleep.
Reply:It%26#039;s probally a dry socket, go to the Dentist. They need to appy medicine to it.
