Hello to everyone.
 

Hello to everyone.

I am zakria and have been suffering from left side facial and tongue pain after my 1st molar extraction nearly three months ago.
My pain gradually gets worse as the day progresses, I hope someone can help me find why I have this chronic pain. Molar Abcess would not clear with antibiotics (3courses) Extraction was very traumatic, took some time, had 6 injections of aneasthetic. 3 stitches, the wound is healing o.k.

The following happened in order (in brief):

1st week
get nasty salty foul taste in mouth, intermittant during day, have bad breath too.
swelling in cheek, jaw and sinus area.
intermitted electric shocks at the extracted tooth site, pain travels toward ear
upper maxillary teeth all aching with pain
sinus area painfull to touch
left side of face sensitive to touch/pain

week9
tongue feels swollen on left side, pain at the edge
tongue starts to swell all over, get pulling sensation back into throat, pain in back of tongue.
involuntary twitching in hands/arms infrequent during day and night

week11
involuntary biting of swollen tongue
tongue feels "full" heavy.

week12
feel that talking is affected, cannot utter words fluently,

what is going on, please someone shed some light i'm i a dark place.

thankyou.

Welcome

Hello Zakria (pretty name :))

I'm sorry about this pain issue you are dealing with.
You've found a wonderful place however, and you'll find many caring people here...
My first instinct is to direct you to the Dental Forum, which you can get to by clicking here:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum89.html

Since your pain seems to have started after your dental work.
You can get some very valuable advice there as a starting point....
But your symptoms seem as tho they go beyond a 'dry socket' or other issues relating to the dental work.....
And if that is the case, you can check out other areas here at NT, such as the Occipital Neuralgia Forum here:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum105.html
To further investigate the facial pain.

I hope you find answers soon!
Just ask if you need help finding your way around the forums...

Caring
Rae

thankyou for your kind welcome

hi zakria and welcome to NT,

you sound like you're dealing with so much.
i would suggest you get a 2nd opinion with another oral surgeon.
sometimes getting a 2nd opinion helps a lot.

please let us know how you are.
where do you live? do you have a primary care dr? maybe he could help you get to the bottom of this.
