Tongue Burning,unable To Recognize Taste,unable To Open Mouth,oral Surgery,consumption Of Antibiotic From 7 Days.suggestion?
Hello, my name is Abebe from Ethiopia (Africa). I had an oral surgery just 7 days ago on two of my last molars (the wisdom teeth and the one adjacent to it, sorry if am not specifying with the right term) but I have still problems of
(1) a whitish color is seen on the position of the wisdom teeth (its original location was almost on the bend of my jaw) and I feel a bad test at the side of my tongue
(2) my mouth is not yet opened properly ( opened as wide as 2 cm )
(3) The tip of my tongue is still burning as if it is socked in some chemical or something like that
I have been taking my antibiotic till today as prescribed by the dentist.....please tell me what I can do of these problems. Thank you.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might have some induration and slough over operated wisdom tooth giving rise to all these problems.
Continue the antibiotics.
Take one course of anti-inflammatory medicines.
Do antiseptic gargles.
Gradually you will be alright.
Take light diet.
Ok and take care.
