Had All Wisdom Teeth Removed, Pain In Mouth, Got Blisters At The Back Of Throat, Taking Ibuprofen. Remedy?

Had all 4 wisdom teeth removed under general anaesthetic last Thursday. Got worse ing pain in my mouth. Went back to the dentist yesterday got an infection in the lower left stitch , started me on antibiotics. Face is still swollen but improved, bruising is now coming out. Got horrendous pain in my mouth and tongue, burning/Ice cold sensation. Still have loss of feeling to my lower lip, right side of chin, tongue and gums. Also got blisters at the back of my throat which are very painful. I m taking ibuprofen and 30/500 co-codomol, easing the pain but not completely.

Dentist 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Pain and swelling are common after wisdom tooth extraction you dont worry about the symptoms as they will subside after sometimes.

Take painkillers like ibuprfen as described by your Dentist.

Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.

Start with the course of multivitamin suplements.

Avoid eating of hot and spicy foodstuffs, take soft and cold diet.

Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption as this may worsen the condition.

If the symptoms worsen or persist visit to the concerned Dentist and get the checkup done.

Hope you find this as helpful,

Regards..
