Wisdom teeth removed....ow!?!

Question: Wisdom teeth removed....ow!.?

I had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled Friday morning. I slept most of the weekend and it went as well as expected. I had soreness swallowing and eating for a few days. I went back to work yesterday (Tuesday) and last night the sore throat started again.... Did I screw up all the healing I did on the weekend by going back to work too early.? Is it normal to have a sore throat.?

also, I can hardly open my mouth enough to fit a spoon in before I feel like I'm going to tear the extraction site.... Is that normal or should I have more mobility in my jaw.?

Any help is appreciated :)Health Question & Answer

Answers:

you have dry socket and need to see the dentist or oral surgeon to be treated for it. They will place a medicated dressing inside the socket and you'll have to go back there a few more times to have them removed and get a new dressing placed.Health Question & Answer
