Continuous bleeding after tooth extracti

2019-08-15 14:01:21
I got my Impacted wisdom tooth extracted on Monday. I was absolutely fine till the 1st day. But on 2nd day without any reason I started to bleed at extraction site. I went to my dentist. He did some basic cleaning and asked me to rinse my mouth with saltwater. I did that. But it was of no use. I even consulted another dentist. He gave me a drop called HAEMOCOAGULASE. this drop was effective for a little while. I am bleeding since last two days. Its day 3 but my condition is still the same. Everytime I am removing gauze bleeding is starting. Swelling has not reduced much. But the major concern is about bleeding. I am even using ice packs. I am so worried sick about my health. Please someone help me

The first thing u need to do is to visit a surgeon who would open up the wound totally again and resuture again to bring complete closure of the surgical site. Also while doing so the surgeon will debride most of the unhealthy tissue called granulation tissue so that the bleeding will stop and close to exist .... other than this a blood test to check your bleeding time and clotting time is mandatory ... if there is no pain rite now with that area then be rest assured that there is no infection
