Teeth extraction gum dull pain for years
My last molar teeth of the right below gum was extracted as there was less space for the teeth to grow 5-6 years before. It took 2 months to heal up the empty space after extraction and I experienced heavy pain time to time when I got cold and took antibiotics to for it from doctors but it came again and again, scanning and x-ray was normal.Now there is always dull pain (irritation) just after the second last molar teeth and it increases if I get cold drinks or be outside of home at the air.Not sure pain is coming from the extracted location or from the right surface of the second last molar teeth.

It could be from some other source. Only a consultation and thorough examination can tell us what the problem is. Kindly consult a doctor as soon as possible.

It may be from another tooth in the area. Either a gum recession or a cavity can cause such symptoms . It is likely that the second molar has a cavity under the gum behind. You probably need a root canal in that tooth. Please consult a dentist .
