Is Headache And Sharp Pain On Face Normal With Wisdom Tooth Removal?

I had my wisdom teeth removed and now I have a sharp pain on the left side of my face, neck and shoulders - I have a headache also - is this normal after having wisdom teeth taken out a week ago today - only the one on the bottom of my left side was cut out - the rest were pulled :)

Hello,

Read your query, as you have pain in left side of face , neck and shoulder region after wisdom tooth removal dont worry this pain can be due to nutritional deficiency , traumatic extraction , or side effect of local anaesthesia .
I will suggest you to take proper sleep , take rest , dont take stress, take proper healthy diet , follow post operative instruction given by your dentist , take proper course of medication prescribed by your dentist., if you wont get relief in few days then you again consult your dentist for oral examination .

Hope this will help you.
