Teeth removed and cheek is swollen?? ow?

Question

I had 4 molars removed on Friday at 12pm

It is Sunday 6:30pm and the left half of my face is still swollen like a chipmunk.

The area where my tooth was also still hurts... a sort of dull ache.

The right side is fine and am in no pain anywhere else?

When will the swelling and pain go away??

Is this worth mentioning to my dentist??

Answer 1

swelling and or pain are a pointer to an underlying problem pls report it.

Answer 2

it has been 3 days and still swollen? yes, better ask your dentist what you can take for this. atleast he knows whats going on after the teeth removal.

Answer 3

When I had my wisdom teeth removed I also had huge chipmunk cheeks. This is very normal. It could take up to a week to subside, so i wouldn't worry just yet
