A member asked:
Please tell me if i should still feel pain when swallowing 9 days after my wisdom tooth extraction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Call dentist: It's not uncommon but it is dependent on the amount of surgery needed, if any, to remove the wisdom tooth. You should contact the dentist to have the area checked and examined. It's possible you might have a post extraction infection in the area and need antibiotics to clear up the infection.
