Hello doctor,
I had an extraction of a molar due to an abscess. I think I may have a dry socket as I have pain going up my head and down my neck. What should I do?
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Thank you for your query.
I understand your concern and reviewed your images (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). You have developed a dry socket. The socket is open, and infected. Share your radiograph of the same tooth if you have taken it after extraction may be there can be a root tip or bony spicule left. I suggest you to follow a few instructions mentioned below.
I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
