I understand you're experiencing discomfort and pain in your mouth and jaw, and I want to help provide some guidance. However, I cannot diagnose medical conditions or offer specific medical advice. It's important to seek professional medical help for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. With that in mind, here are some general suggestions: seek medical attention: contact your dentist immediately: explain your symptoms and schedule an appointment as soon as possible. They can examine your mouth, diagnose the cause of your pain and swelling, and recommend the appropriate treatment. Consider emergency care if: you have difficulty breathing or swallowing. You have severe facial swelling or redness. You have a high fever. You experience intense, unrelieved pain. Possible causes: swollen taste buds: several factors can cause this, including allergies, irritation from dental appliances, oral thrush, or burning your tongue. Wisdom tooth issues: painful gum inflammation and swelling around wisdom teeth are common, especially if they're impacted or erupting. Tips to manage discomfort: gargle with warm salt water several times a day to soothe pain and swelling. Apply a cold compress to your cheek to reduce swelling and pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help manage mild pain. Avoid spicy, acidic, or hot foods that may irritate your tongue and mouth. Maintain good oral hygiene: brush and floss gently around the affected area to prevent further infection. Remember: don't try to diagnose yourself or ignore the symptoms. Seek professional medical advice to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Follow the dentist's instructions carefully to ensure proper healing. I hope this information provides some initial guidance and helps you find the right medical care. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

I understand that you're experiencing pain and sensitivity in your wisdom tooth, and that it's been going on for several days. This can be quite distressing, and I can offer some general information and suggestions, but I cannot provide medical advice or diagnose your condition. Wisdom teeth often cause problems as they erupt: pain and swelling are common symptoms, especially as the tooth pushes through the gum tissue. The tooth may feel loose or sensitive due to inflammation and pressure in the area. Other symptoms can include bad breath, difficulty chewing, and jaw tightness. Here are some things you can do to manage the pain and discomfort: over-the-counter pain relievers: medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help alleviate pain and inflammation. Follow the dosage instructions carefully and consult your doctor if you have any medical conditions or are taking other medications. Cold compress: apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek near the affected tooth for 10-15 minutes at a time. This can help reduce swelling and discomfort. Warm salt water rinses: mix a teaspoon of salt into a glass of warm water and rinse your mouth gently several times a day. This can help clean the area and reduce inflammation. Practice good oral hygiene: brush and floss your teeth regularly, including the area around the wisdom tooth. This can help prevent infection and further irritation. Important note: it's crucial to see a dentist as soon as possible. They can properly diagnose the situation, assess the position and health of your wisdom tooth, and recommend the best course of treatment. Depending on the specific situation, treatment options may include: monitoring the tooth's eruption if it's not causing significant problems. Prescribing antibiotics if there's an infection. Performing a surgical procedure to remove the wisdom tooth, especially if it's impacted (stuck) or causing extensive pain and complications. Remember, ignoring a painful wisdom tooth can lead to serious complications like infection, damage to surrounding teeth, and jawbone problems. Therefore, seeking professional dental help promptly is essential for addressing the issue and protecting your oral health. I hope this information is helpful! please prioritize seeing a dentist to get proper diagnosis and treatment for your wisdom tooth.

Hi in many people, wisdom teeth don't break through the gum and grow out – or only part of them does. The reasons are multifactorial. This is more common in the lower jaw than it is in the upper jaw. The reason is usually that there isn't enough space for the tooth in the jaw. Wisdom teeth are usually only removed if they cause problems, or are likely to in the future. (pain, swelling etc.) wisdom teeth that don't break through (sometimes also called “impacted” wisdom teeth) often don't cause any problems. But they sometimes lead to pain, swelling, tooth decay or inflamed gums. Impacted wisdom teeth may also push other teeth out of the way. Wisdom teeth that break through the gums may or may not cause problems too. In your case, please provide details and pain and other symptoms. Kindly attach the x-ray or pictures if available .it is important to get answers to these questions before having any wisdom teeth removed: let's connect over a call or text so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.

Your experience of temporary anaesthesia or paraesthesia after an atraumatic surgical wisdom teeth removal will certainly subside. 90% of lingual nerve injuries are temporary and gets better soon. Any functional deficits like speech and mastication difficulties, tongue and cheek biting, taste dysfunction are the symptoms of permanent lingual nerve injury which you don’t have. So ignore it for now.

Hi lybrate-user. Did the audiologist also perform an impedance audiogram?. If not please get it done. Tmj disorder can cause tinnitus, ear pain and sensation of ear fullness. But since you have only developed these symptoms post nasal surgery. Get an impedance audiogram also done. Also use a saline nasal spray, steam inhalation and warm saline gargles for a few days. If it doesn't help talk to an ent specialist.
