Suggest Remedy For Headache And Dizziness After A Tooth Extraction

I had upper wisdom tooth extracted three weeks ago due to abscess on back of tooth. However everyday since I have a headache which is usually not eased without taking analgesics. Also now I have dizziness since new year. Is all this related to pulled wisdom tooth as I can not see another cause. Thanks for prompt reply.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.

As per your complain dizziness and headache after upper wisdom tooth extraction can be related as many a times after upper wisdom tooth extraction there is infection in the sinuses leading to the symptoms you have..
It can also be due to side effects of medications if you are taking any..
You should also get your blood pressure checked as it can also be a cause..

I would suggest you to consult a Medicine Specialist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and also investigation of sinuses like MRI scan can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly..
In case of infection antibiotics, anti-inflammatory painkillers can be advised..
Other causes will be treated according to cause..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
