Wisdom teeth?
that is normal. it'll be a little swollen.


i got mines pulled out too. my cheeks were swollen. it'll heal in time.

Reply:Mine was sore for about a week and then got better. Make sure you try and stretch your jaw!
Reply:If it does not feel better by the end of the week or gets worse...see the oral surgeon...it could become infected.
Reply:I would place a warm compress on the bump to see if that helps reduce it. It's pretty common to be in pain this long. Especially if it was a difficult surgery, lower extractions can be hard to remove from the bone, if the pain continues for more than two weeks or the bump has not abated, I would have the surgeon look to make sure everything is healing as planned. Stretching your jaw and exercising it is a good idea as mentioned previously. Good Luck and feel better soon.
