Wisdom teeth removed weeks ago, sudden symptoms?!
Question: Wisdom teeth removed weeks ago, sudden symptoms!?
I had my wisdom teeth removed on July 10th!. Now, my left cheek is swelling a bit!. It feels like there's a hard mass in the cheek and it is very tender!. My cheek just feels heavy!. There is also a little soreness!. Is this an infection!? (I am calling my oral surgeon tomorrow, today is Sunday so there isn't anything I can do about it for now!. I'm just curious what else it could be!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
it could possibly be an abcess!. Its basically a pocket of pus and they have to drain it!. Its very painful b/c I got one after I had my wisdom teeth removed!. Just make sure you call the dentist asap so you can go and get things checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
