[|Human|] Hi My name is Ashlee and 2day I got 3 wisdom teeth removed while under Anesthesia and asleep. I woke up like choking and asthma and thort sumthing was cawt in my throat I tried to hack it up but it just woodnt come only left over blood from the surgery, I then realised it wasnt anything stuck but my uvula three times its regular size. I told the nurse I am having trouble talking and swallowing she sed its just becuz I came out of theatre and my glands and uvula is swollen. I went home and rested but it has now been almost 16 hours since my opp and I am literally and physically cant talk without my uvula choking me what can I do to reduce the size and will it go back to normal ? this has never happened to me b4 and Im a lil scared , its SOOO swollen I coodnt eat anything I tried icecream but it stung and burned down on it and down my throat , wat shood I do and wat can I eat without it hurting?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for asking the query, I would like to tell you that wisdom tooth extraction is not a simple extraction, and it is often associated with post-operative complications like pain, swelling, fever, malaise, difficulty in mouth opening, swallowing. You don't worry about the symptoms as it will subside after sometime. Difficulty in swallowing is due to swelling in the uvula, normally after anesthesia swelling and numbness lasts for about 24 hours, visit to the concerned Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon if it last for more than 24 hours. Follow the post-operative instructions given by the Dentist properly. Take complete rest, take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics. Meanwhile, at home go for symptomatic treatment like lukewarm saline gargles, antiseptic mouth rinses. Hope this helps out. Regards...
