Vertigo+: Your symptoms may be due to a post-extraction infection, but more likely due to a systemic infection completely unrelated to your extractions. Please contact the Dentist or specialist Oral Surgeon who treated you for a post-surgical reevaluation. If problem unrelated to the extractions your Dental Practitioner will refer you to the proper venue for treatment.

Possible Causes: include that perhaps you have not eaten as much and are weak from that. Make sure you are at least drinking plenty of fluids and it's OK for a few days to even eat some foods that are not really good for us - like ice cream - any food helps! Another possibility is that the pain meds are too strong - try taking half of the pill. If not improved within 3-5 days, contact the office for a follow up.
