My wisdom tooth area is swollen with pain and pus. What to do?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern regarding dental health. The swelling and pain around the wisdom tooth are called pericoronitis, which is very common during the eruption of wisdom tooth and easily treatable by removal of the same tooth as there is no need for it during chewing function. So consult your nearby oral surgeon for clinical examination of the affected area and further treatment as early as possible. Till then, you can take Ibuprofen for temporary relief in pain. I hope this information will be helpful to resolve your query, and further questions are always welcome. I will like to answer them.
