Wisdom tooth pain!

I was diagnosed with an infection in my growing wisdom tooth, its just a pin prick at the moment!. I was given antibiotics and am on nurofen for the pain. My cheek has swollen so much I can hardly talk or open my mouth. Anyone got any natural cures to also aide with taking down the swelling and pain?? Xx

Answer #1

If you have a fever go to the hospital. Oral infections are NOTHING to mess around with. If the infection gets worse, don’t put it off, ok? Make sure you get evaluated by a doctor if you don’t think your dentist is taking you seriously. I hope you feel better soon!

Answer #2

A heating pad/hot water bottle (make sure it’s not too hot) put it on the side where it’s swollen. (It helps for some people)
