Question: I got my 4 wisdom teeth out on wednesday!?
Now I can't open my mouth but it feels and tastes like it is pussing out and I am swallowing it!. is that normal!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Very normal!. I had trouble opening my mouth for about a week when I got mine out!. You are probably tasting the blood and fluids from the sockets, which are very normal!. The sockets are in the process of healing!. Another thing that may cause a bad taste/odor is if food is impacted into the sockets!. Be sure to clean them out by rinsing well or if you have a monoject syringe (large syringe with a large tip), you can use it to flush debris out of the sockets!. I found that to be very helpful when I got mine out!.
I've included a website w/ a picture of a monoject syringe!. Ignore the tonsil stone thing!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I had mine cut out, they told me that it would be sore when I would try to open my mouth!. You have to slowly stretch your mouth!. Gargle with salt water and make sure that there is no food particles in the wounds!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
dissolve a half teaspoon of salt in a teacup with boiling water, then when it gets to room temperature rinse your mouth out with it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I would Gargle in warm salt water 3 times a day until you Can get to the dentist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
