Ear pain after wisdom teeth extraction?

1 Answer

Answer :

Take a double dose of painkillers. From everything I’ve read, a dry socket would not cause anyone to wonder if they have it. They’d be crying in agony. I think they’ll say to put a half unfrozen bag of peas on your face and to double the dosage of meds. Were the teeth embedded in the bone? Was it a complicated surgery? If so, I’d think you could have some level of discomfort for a week or ten days. Hope you feel better soon.
