Wisdom Tooth Taken Out, Headaches, Bulging Vein, Pulsating. What Is It?

Hello,

I had my wisdom teeth taken out about 13 days ago and for the past few days I have a constant headache as well as bulging vein above my right eye that forms a "Y" shape and pain near my right ear another vein is on the right side that can be seen pulsing through the skin. The headache isn't severe and I can still sleep well, it's has me worried with the veins though. Is normal or should I seek medical attention.

Hi,

Thanks for aksing the query,

I would like to tell you that pain, fever, swelling, nausea, dizziness are common side effects after removal of wisdom tooth, you dont worry about the symptoms as they will subside after sometimes.

Follow the post extraction instructions given to you properly, take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics prescribed to you, take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.Take tab paracetomol along with the medications.

Hope you find this as helpful,

Regards.
