How Can Pain In The Gums After Tooth Extraction Be Treated?
had wisdom teeth pulled 3 weeks ago. had dry socket in both lower holes. still having alot of pain in lower left and yellow pus coming out. been "sick" with cold/flu like symptoms for 2 days also. is there something that I can do at home, or should I go back to oral surgeon?
As per your query pain in the gums after tooth extraction seems to be due to presence of remaining infection and infected tooth sockets. I would suggest you to consult dentist once and get thorough examination done and do warm saline gargles. Apply numbing gel over the sore area for relief from pain. Avoid eating from that side. Avoid spicy, sour and acidic foods. Take proper course of antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medications. Go for quadrant cleaning.
