I had my all of my wisdom teeth out about 3 weeks ago. I did everything they told me to do, and I was doing great until today, when I was flushing out the bottom areas with salt water, when I noticed a pimple looking thing where one of the teeth was extracted. I thought it might be some food, so I brushed my teeth right after, and it popped! now I m just sore..is it an infection?
Hello.read through your query .accordingly I feel that it might be clotted which was filling the socket got dislodged...but don't worry...don't do too hard spitting after washing your mouth.do it softly BCO dislodging clot can cause delay in healing. .do salt water gargle...take antibiotics and analgesics prescribed by dentist.don't touch extraction area with tongue finger or brush...follow soft diet for few days...don't bit with that area...and after few days still if pain comes get an appointment of an oral surgeon and get treatment...hope your benefitted something with this reply.have a healthy day!!!
