Hi Kayy,

In case you are new here and don't know my background ... I've been a dental assistant for 30+ yrs and have extensive experience with oral surgery. Without any doubt what you have experienced is not normal or going to resolve properly on it's own. You cannot always gauge a problem on how much it hurts. My suggestion is to see a different oral surgeon and have all surgical areas thoroughly evaluated. A panoramic xray may also be helpful even though you just had one. The big concern with extracting wisdom teeth is the post operative healing. If the areas do not heal well, you can be left with a serious condition called Osteomyelitis. This condition can be very painful, progressive and very difficult to get rid of. So any post op abnormalities should be thoroughly evaluated by a surgeon ASAP.

Please let us know how you are doing...
Bryanna
