2022-11-28 13:18:51
After extraction of wisdom tooth. Almost six happen right side causing horrible ear ache to jaw totally pain and swelling. Near opening and closing mouth point having more pain and discomfort. Inside jaw some thing is effecting clicking sound and Jaw pulling and dragging sensation. Still could not able chew and even little bit spicy also causing pain and discomfort. Actually that site having pressure on ears and headaches too. Actually if I am considering oral and maxillofacial surgeon is telling that there is no problem with teeth. Tmj is not my specialty. Said to consider ent surgeon only. Present any precautions should follow. I am trying all home remedies while watching YouTube videos. Apply hot pack too. Suggest any treatments

It can be tmj disorder with disc displacement. Muscle relaxants along with corticosteroids has to be taken to relieve the pain and discomfort. Apply hot and cold compression. You can consult through this for prescription of medication and instructions on investigations and dietary instructions and physiotherapy to perform.
