Have jaw pain, ear pan, swollen tonsil. Wisdom teeth coming in. Took antibiotics for sinusitis. Is pain due to wisdom teeth?
Patient: My wisdom teeth are coming in on my right side. My jaw hurts, ear pain and I have a swollen tonsil/gland all on my right side and neck pain. It doesn't hurt but sometime feels awkward swallowing. Initially the doctor said that it wasa sinus infection or allergies but it has been like this for going on three months. I went on antibiotics and allergy medication and I still have the swollen gland/tonsil at the back of my right throat. Could this all be due to the wisdom teeth? I'm getting them removed in a few weeks. I've also been in a lot of stress at work. Doctor: Hi, Thank You for contacting with us. the type of problem you are mentioning it can be because of your wisdom teeth only, because some times the wisdom teeth are impacted means they are placed inside the bone and they create similar problems. To get it confirmed it is better to get an x-ray done. Visit your dentist and get it removed as soon as possible.
