Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Five days back, I got three of my wisdom teeth removed. I feel that my right lower gum is torn and is still hurting. I do not know what to do.
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
We are here to help you.
I understand your concern.
As it has been only five days and you have got three teeth removed, it is normal to feel a burning sensation and pain in certain areas.
Complete healing takes at least three weeks. For the time being, you can do warm saline gargles five to six times a day for five days. This will take care of the gum healing.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
