What Causes Scabbed Tonsil If Wisdom Teeth Is Been Taken Out ?
My tonsils look as if they're scabbed, I got my wisdom teeth out about a week ago and have been struggling to keep the holes clean but it's so difficult. there is no pain in my throat just unaccountability. do you know what this could be? could it be from bacteria after getting all four of my wisdom teeth out?

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
This scab which you are mentioning can be because of throat infection, as wisdom tooth extraction does not cause these kind of scabbing.
So better once you visit an E.N.T specialist.
Hope it will help you.
