What Causes Head And Neck Pain With Weakness After Eruption Of Wisdom Tooth?

Hi, i am 36 and my wisdom tooth began erupting approx 2 yrs ago after the birth of my child. its partially out and has a piece of gum tissue at the top of it. i have been experiencing these weird symptoms as well with my head, neck and ear, and generally feeling unwell fatigued and weak. I visited the ENT he ruled out infection, my family doctor did cbc, HBA1C,b thyroids and urine all came back normal except the HBA1C came back 6.5. my dentist checked for infection but found none but he told me the tooth will have to be removed. i am interested in knowing whether a wisdom tooth eruption can make me feel so terrible. thank you

hello thanks for the queiry,, Impacted wisdom tooth if infected can cause fever, pain and generalized weakness,get iopa radiographs done to see what type of impaction is there,,the gum surrounding is called pericoronal flap,, keep that are clean by brushing till the fartherst of the teeth and while extraction of that tooth even the flap can be removed,,since all the test are normal,, you can go ahead with the extraction,, kindly consult a oral surgeon for a check up and treatment,,hope it helps,,take care..
