[|Human|] I had my wisdom teeth removed on the 19th, so 6 days ago... they were both on my lower jaw but the one on the right side has almost completely healed. The one on the left is still swollen and hasnt really gone down. A hard bump has developed on my lower right jaw like under my gums... and is extremely painful if it is bumped. I just wanted to know if this is normal?
[|AI|]  Hi! Welcome to Chat Doctor. I read your query. Wisdom tooth surgery wound usually take more time to heal than normal tooth extraction depending on angle of wisdom tooth impaction. If there is a swelling, I suggest you to visit oral surgeon again and get it checked. May b he/she will take a radiograph of the area to check infection or any remaining tooth fragment and do the required treatment. For time being you can start antibiotic course along with anti-inflammatories like Choral AP, etc. Do warm saline rinses. Keep the area clean. You can use Betadine gargles or mouthwash. Take multivitamin tablet once daily for 2 weeks and maintain good diet. Hope this answer helps you. Thank you!
