Cause For Pain In The Gums And Headache?

Hi, my husband had 8 teeth extracted a few years ago, the top and bottom back teeth. He recently has been getting severe pain in the gums where the teeth were along with headaches. This pain comes on quickly and not consistently, and lasts for a while. Is there anything we can do?

Hi

Thanks for writing in.

Pain could be due to traumatic multiple extractions.
Just continue with course of analgesic & antibiotic.
Do warm saline rinses 4-5 times a day.
Consult dentist if problem persists.
