Update:
1 month post wisdom tooth surgery
The stinky smelly snot in my nose is gone since my visit with the ENT on Monday.
Today is Saturday and my wisdom tooth socket continues to leak snot/mucus from the tooth socket. This happens after I wake up and after I eat for the most part. I tried to run yesterday but the socket started hurting and poured down the green mucus.
I have another appointment with the oral surgeon on Monday.
I was wondering if there was anything extra I could do to increase the healing time of whatever is happening. I used salt water rinse three times a day, taking vitamin c. I'm also on clinda and have two days left of steroids.
I got back the culture results from my ENT as followed (not sure what it means):
Gram Stain GRAM STAIN -- Many Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes Seen; Many Small Gram Negative Bacilli; Many Fusiform Gram Negative Bacilli; Many Gram Positive Cocci In Chains;
Culture Result Heavy Growth
Culture Result Normal Oropharyngeal Flora
Culture Result No Further Workup
