Have undergone rct. Swollen around the gum, pain and heaviness around the affected area. Medical cure for this?
Patient: i have undergone rct in one tooth but due to  repeated infection in the tooth, the tooth was extracted. Now after the extraction of the tooth there is mild swelling around the gum and down, little pain and heaviness around the affected area. 10 days have gone after extraction of tooth. Can u tell me what are these symptoms and treatment Doctor: Hi,  Thanks for asking the query,  Extraction of the tooth is often associated with post operative complications like pain and swelling. Dont worry about the symptoms as they will subside after sometimes. Follow the post operative instruction properly. According to your clinical history i suppose that the infection in your tooth was deep after extraction a curettage and rinsing of socket with antiseptic saline rinses was required. I would suggest you to take a course of antibiotics and analgesics for 3-5 days. If the symptoms persists or worsen visit the Dentist and get the checkup done. Maintain a good oral hygiene.  Hope this helps out.  Regards....
