Call your surgeon : The pain medication prescribed after "wisdom teeth" removal depends in the difficulty of the removal. For straightforward extraction advil and tylenol (acetaminophen) can work fine but for more difficult extractions vicodin or Percocet works well. Your surgeon can call in a prescription for vicodin for pain and an anti-emetic like Phenergan for nausea to a pharmacy near you. If you smoke, now us a good to quit.

Call your doctor: Oral surgery can result in post-operative complications related to trauma and or infection. This may relate to the headache you are experiencing. It would be in your best interest to contact the doctor that treated you and have them review your case. Please don't suffer - call your doctor.

Fluid intake: Dehydration is a major cause of headaches, make sure you're getting enough water. If concerned call your surgeon.
