Dear sir I did extraction of the wisdom teeth on the left side both the upper and lower 3rd molar I have given pain killer for 3 days, now today is the 4th day and I am out of analgesic. Is it normal to feel pain after 4 days of removing wisdom teeth. I feel very much pain if I do not take the pain killer. What should I do.

Hi, yes!pain must b because of the healing socket, usually it takes 1to 2 weeks for the socket to heal completely pain will b mild to moderate and slowly it will. Subside. Do continue your analgesics as in when you get pain. And do keep the operated area clean. It will help in healing faster.
