Is this normal for wisdom teeth recovery?!


Question: Is this normal for wisdom teeth recovery?
I had plenty of energy the night i had my wisdom teeth pulled, but its not the fourth day I'm I'm tired all the time, I've slept about 16 hours today, i've had a horrible headache all day, sensitivity to sound. The swelling has gone down on the left side but on the right side its gotten worse, my neck is even sore on the right side all the way to my temple. I'm eatily alittle bit of solids like bread but thats about it, and i was eating a lot of fruity drinks but now it just stings to eat anything fruity. I've been eating about 700-1000 calories a day and now everything ive eaten makes my stomach sick.

I feel like things should be getting better by now but I'm a lot more sick and tired today then any other.

Call the dentist ASAP. And if you can not get him, call the ER and talk to them. It sounds like you might have developed an infection.



Sounds like you may have a secondary infection on the right side. I would call the office (they probably have an after-hours emergency number) and explain the problem. You will probably receive antibiotics if you are not on one already. Rinse the area with warm salt water (should be safe since this is four days after having the tooth removed) and sip water.

Had this same problem after having a tooth removed; had dry socket. It HURTS!
