Dont panic
Mouth opening will be manage after swelling and bone loss treated.
Bone loss can only estimate after a fresh xray taken.
Here you have to take a note that after the time of cyst removal it may take time to heal .If we found inadequate bone formtion after healing . We will do grafting followed by implant so you can chew comfortably.
For pain take pcm 500 and visit to dentist .
Health Tips
dont panic but It may take about a month more to get rid of pain and swelling .

after wisdom tooth surgery or cyst surgery swelling will be there for atleast 2 to 3 weeks and mouth opening may reduce to some extent but as time passes things should improve.
Next Steps
wait for two more weeks.
