Wisdom tooth issue
My upper left wisdom wisdom tooth is biting my cheek and cheek jaw joint due to which a wound has formed. Doctor advised to get wisdom tooth extracted as it is at an angle.
But, I have recovered from severe covid 25 days agao and I was on steroids for covid treatment.
Can I go for the extraction or should wait for some more time.

Greetings,
Maam as per my advice you have to give some time for covid recovery.
After approx 2 months you can plan your extraction.
For the wound you can use dentogel or you can go for enemeloplasty for that specific tooth
It will give you temporary relief then you can plan to extract it
