Question 1

is my headache, dizziness and neck pain caused from my wisdom teeth?

Accepted Answer

Very possibly: Best to get some xrays to eliminate other possibilites like a bady decayed tooth which can also be the source.

Question 2

can wisdom teeth cause head pressure, dizziness and neck pain?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: It's unlikely.  See a physician to rule out medical causes first.

Question 3

can a wisdom teeth extractions cause referred arm and neck pain? the pain started about a week after the surgery when i went off of the pain meds.

Accepted Answer

Not likely.: The nerves that run to your upper and lower teeth also innervate the skin of either your jaw of your midface. Therefore, any pain in your arm and neck is not likely referred from the area that run to your wisdom teeth.

Question 4

front neck pain into clavicle area burning pain to tip of shoulder. top wisdom teeth out a week ago any correlation

Accepted Answer

Evaluation Needed: It could be connected but it could not be connected as well.  I'd go back to the doctor to be evaluated to at least see if the surgery caused the pain.

Question 5

can i still get referred head and neck ache/pain a week or so after 2 wisdom teeth extracted they were badly decayed 1 hour on each to get them out?

Accepted Answer

Reevaluate: by a week post-surgery you should be feeling better.  If not, return to the Surgeon who treated you for reevaluation.  You may have dry socket (clot wash-out resulting in bone infection).

Question 6

can wisdom teeth cause neck spasms and head pressure?

Accepted Answer

Wisdom teeth: Wisdom teeth cannot cause neck spasms to my knowledge. Head pressure is a vague symptom. Certainly wisdom teeth can cause pain and pressure throughout the jaws, face and even the head. See a board certified oral surgeon in consultation to determine if your wisdom teeth are causing the problem and whether they need to be removed.

Question 7

my wisdom teeth seems to cause pain in my jaw, neck and chest. hospital did ekg?

Accepted Answer

Playing it safe: Wisdom teeth pain in jaw and neck are with the norm, but chest pain is not! It seems that the hospital you are at is bring thorough as any oral infection can attack your heart, causing catastrophic damage. So once this emergency episode is resolved, get those wisdom teeth extracted!

Question 8

can impacted wisdom teeth cause swollen lymph node in neck? i noticed it and i don't know why it's there and i'm worried. going to the dr later this month?

Accepted Answer

: An impacted wisdom tooth without infection should not cause a reactive lymph node. However, reactive lymph node is common so there is nothing to concern in the mean time, please patiently wait for your appointment. Take care and good luck!

Question 9

can wisdom tooth cause shoulder and neck pain, thyroid enlargement if not removed? jaw hurts, teeth around wisdom tooth hurt, little appetite

Accepted Answer

Teeth: can cause local and referred pain but not usually to the shoulder, Gargle and use ibuprofen but go see your dentist

Question 10

rotten wisdom teeth, food gets stuck inside. can that cause swollen neck glands, a low grade fever and feel sick all the time?on cipro (ciprofloxacin). just worried.

Accepted Answer

Seek treatment: You should make an appointment to either have a filling in the tooth if it can be restored or have it removed.  It will only get worse and can be quite debilitating, especially over the holidays (that's usually when these things flare up and become quite painful).
