Could Swelling In Glands Of Neck And Migraine Be The Result Of Wisdom Tooth Trying To Come Out?
The glands in my neck have been swollen for a long time, but here recently it has gotten worse the last couple of days. It has caused me to have a constant migraine and pain. I am 28 years old and my wisdom tooth is still trying to come in. Could this be the cause of all these problems?

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
Actually sometimes the eruption of third molar causes pain, and when it is situated below bone level, it causes severe pain.
In your case also it looks like that there is infection of the tooth which is leading to pain radiating towards head and swollen lymph nodes below jaw.
Better you should visit a good dentist and get it treated.
Hope it will help you.
Thank you.
