[|Human|] Behind my upper back teeth on both sides is red, swollen and painful. It goes into the TMJ and feels tight when I open my mouth. I have a dime size open area on my cheek. Not sure what to do. About a month ago it wasnt this bad and I was put on a Z pack which helped a little but now its back on both sides now and now radiates into my ears, neck and the pressure in my head is pretty bad. Any thoughts?
[|AI|]  Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. Are your wisdom tooth (third molars) erupted in your mouth?. It would be helpful if we know that. I would suggest you to visit your oral and maxillofacial surgeon and get a radiograph done to check the position of the wisdom tooth. Improperly erupting wisdom tooth can also cause the situation you have mentioned. If they are impacted or not positioned correctly, have it extracted to relieve symptoms. For the pain you can take ibuprofen(if you are not allergic to any medicine). Antibiotics may be required like amoxicillin and metro lag on prescription by your dentist. Do salt water gargling. Hope this was useful. Thanks and regards.
