wisdom teeth are worrying me?!


Question: Wisdom teeth are worrying me?
I just got all 4 of them out exactly a week ago and the right side of my face is good, where as the left side is still swollen, and when I feel it, there's a large lump on it, and it only hurts when touched. What is this? I need it to go away by Monday because that's when I get back to school. What should I do? Is there anything I can do at home? Please help, I'm worried.

Answers:

Possible cyst? Your taking the antibiotics prescribed after the surgery right? If not you may need to get some from your dentist. Also, keep your mouth clean, maybe eat simple foods (more liquid diet) for a little while. If this bump persists, you need to go to the doctors. Possibly ask your dentist. I had experience with the same thing, and my dentist took it very seriously and I was immediately put on more antibiotics.
