I have already had my 3 wisdom teeth which are two top ones and one right hand side bottom one. The 4th tooth has cropped up but not fully. When I poke my tongue there I can feel slight cropping towards the cheek side but its completely plain and smooth gums towards tongue side of teeth. And it pains like its about to come out all together. I have been enduring pain in my gum area there and at base of my newly cropped up wisdom tooth for more than 2 weeks now. Can you please suggest some natural ways to make it bearable? And help me understand if its normal to suffer such pain as I didn't have this much pain when the rest of my wisdom teeth appeared. Thanks!

Hello lybrate-user, pain during eruption of wisdom tooth is not uncommon. However, if its repeatedly hurting, you need a radiograph to check if its position favors complete eruption into the mouth. You can do warm salt water gargling for relief. If it still does not subside, consult a dentist for medication.
