I have toothache
I had my wisdom teeth removed last week on Wednesday at a hospital. I have a check-up with the maxillo-facial surgeon there next week.
I took anti-biotics (to prevent infections) for 5 days and finished the course. I have also been taking an anti-inflamatory pain killer which I got from the hospital but have just finished them.
Now in the last 24 hours or so one side of my mouth has become swollen and I have really bad tooth ache. It is slightly further forward in my mouth to the sites where the wisdom teeth used to be. I'm not sure if it is related to the wisdom teeth thing or not. I don't know if I should contact the dentist or the hospital department who were/ are dealing with the wisdom teeth.
It hurts loads.
