Cheek bite, prolonged ulcer

2017-06-02 05:22:17
I develop a small ulcer which heals on its on after a few days. However, for the past 3 weeks there's an ulcer which did not heal completely and is still existent. I applied a gel Zytee and it would still not go. Doctor said wisdom tooth needs to be extracted. However, I am scared as applying the gel didnt work a bit. Whom to see now for the Ulcer?

Your wisdom tooth is impinging on the cheek so the ulcer is formed . Ulcer will heal only after extraction as when extraction is done the trauma factor is eliminated . In absence of trauma the ulcer will heal
