Painful swallowing after wisdom teeth extraction can be caused by excessive wound damage, nerve damage, wound infection and other factors. 1. Excessive wound damage: usually in the process of wisdom teeth extraction, it is necessary to cut the gum tissue, and then pull out the wisdom teeth, and then suture. If the location of the wisdom teeth is deeper, a larger incision may be needed, which will cause greater damage to the local tissues, which will result in painful swallowing after the wisdom teeth are removed. If the pain symptoms are more serious, you can follow the doctor’s advice to choose ibuprofen and other pain medication for treatment. 2. Nerve damage: If the doctor’s operation is not standardized or the position of wisdom teeth is special, it will lead to local nerve damage. When swallowing after wisdom teeth extraction, it will stimulate the locally damaged nerves, thus causing pain symptoms, and it is recommended to consult a doctor in time for treatment. 3. Wound infection: If the doctor does not follow the principle of aseptic operation when extracting wisdom teeth, or does not pay attention to oral hygiene after the operation, it may lead to bacterial invasion of the wound, thus causing inflammatory lesions. Usually, antibiotics such as metronidazole and ceftazidime can be prescribed for treatment. During the medication period, you need to pay attention to oral hygiene to avoid aggravation of inflammatory lesions. Usually after the extraction of wisdom teeth after the symptoms of swallowing pain, it is recommended to go to the regular hospital stomatology consultation, under the guidance of the doctor to clarify the cause of treatment.
