The fistula burst, and drained over the course of the week I waited (with bronchitis) to get the 4 wisdom teeth taken out. I should also mention that there is an INTENSE cold-sensitivity in the fairly large pocket left by the removal of that tooth. The pain is largely non-existent at this point aside from that, UNTIL about 7:30 pm each evening, at which time it kicks in at that same spot, and radiates upward and beneath the other lower teeth on my left side. It is well controlled by 2 Advil, and I have no trouble sleeping after I take those.

Thanks again for your attention and advice on this!
