[|Human|] Hello, I am 31 years old. I have four teeth extractions 8 days ago ... not molars just ones required for braces/crowding. It appears to have healed nicely and I took antibiotics.  However I have been left with one of the worse headaches that I have ever experienced. The pain meds barely numb it. I have also taken alieve with no improvement. The headache is non stop and I have not been able to identify any triggers that make it worse or better. What is happening? How can I improve it?
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe headache after tooth extraction, which is mainly because traumatic injury in extraction, which sometimes cause slight nerve injury or headache due to stressful condition. I would suggest you not to panic about anything it is very normal as extraction is a surgical procedure, 24-48 hrs such symptoms are normal. If headache persist after 7 days of extraction is the major cause for concern. Then you should visit your dentist immediately. Take ibuprofen 600 mg or Tylenol for pain removal. Your symptoms will resolve. Do warm saline gargles. Take cold water, ice creams for immediate relief. Eat very soft food. Maintain socket site clean by antimicrobial mouthwash. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
