Generally nerve damage doesn't happen because we don't give apical pressure while removing teeth , but still we do extractions only if it is very much needed ...if you don't have any problem ,let it be there then

Right side horizontally impacted wisdom tooth is very close to mandible nerve. You can visit an oral and maxillofacial surgeon to remove Right and left impacted wisdom tooth. For prescription of medication, you can consult through this.
