[|Human|] Hi I went doc about a week ago because of swelling in my jaw and neck. I was advised to have an ultrasound and it was clear and doc said the cause of swelling was likely due to an infection of throat or some dental problem and had prescribed me with antibiotics for 5 days. So I went to dentist too see if everything was ok and I did my normal routine cleaning and I had 3 fillings. Dentist had taken an x ray and mentioned that my upper wisdom tooth had erupted and I would have remove it since it was overlapping with my other tooth and also since the bottom wisodom tooth had not erupted yet the top two was actually touching my gums  which causes infections and bacteria. The next morning after I had gone to the dentist I had a terrible headache followed by fever and a bad cough . So I had 3 days of temp and bad cough and felt week so had gone to another doc and mentioned that I have bronchitis and need to take a course of antibiotics. My concern is how long I have to wait to remove my wisdom tooth and if there would be any complications?
[|AI|]  Hello, I understand your concerns and am glad to assist you. Am I correct to assume that you have started the antibiotics for the Bronchitis? You should be getting relief and symptoms decreasing. Where you diagnosed with a viral and bacterial condition aside from tootChatDoctorplications?  Is the swelling no longer spreading? Any pus, swelling at tooth location? Keep your mouth clean and rinsing daily. Your medical history is a factor to determine when the tooth can be extracted. You can not consider many types of sedation if your lungs are not clear. Are you going to an oral surgeon for the extraction since the dentist did not take the wisdom tooth out? Since you had a dental exam, what was the treatment plan to remove the wisdom tooth? Being on antibiotics does not mean you have to wait to have the tooth out, but other medications promote bleeding and should not be taken when planning an extraction. A common pain, fever reducing medicine, aspirin, must be stopped before extractions, or you can risk excessive bleeding.  Please follow your medication directions, update your dentist and physician on your condition and proceed as doctors advise. Consulting now with an oral surgeon is to be considered. The surgeon needs to determine how complex an extraction will be especially since one wisdom tooth seems to be impacted under bone. Providing more answers may allow me to provide more direction for you. I am here to help and hope you are feeling better.
