[|Human|] I am a 67 years young female.  Have hypertension which I am taking meds for but otherwise I am in good health.  Just had my remaining bottom teeth (10)pulled July 7th.  All went fine but my gums on the right side of my face right about the jawline is sore and seems like its swollen.  Its sore to the touch.  Will see my dentist again on July 18th but how can I get the swelling down until then. Thanks
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The swelling over the gum could be because of the infected gums or any root pieces left in that region or osteomyelitis. Consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done and rule out any infection arising from any left out root pieces or bone infection. If there are root pieces get it removed, take a course of antibiotics like penicillin and metronidazole combination. Do saline gargling. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
