  1. Is It Common to have Ear Pain After Wisdom Tooth Removal?

  2. Having your wisdom teeth removed is a rather serious surgical procedure and your post-operative care is something not to be taken lightly.

  3. There are many different sensations or complications that you might feel after the surgery that is perfectly normal.

  4. If at any point you have any questions or you are concerned about the symptoms you are experiencing, you can always contact your doctor or your oral surgeon and they can help.

  5. Managing Pain

  6. After having your wisdom teeth removed, you can manage your pain by taking things like Tylenol, Motrin, Aleve, Advil, or Ibuprofen as per the instructions on the bottle.

  7. Your dentist or doctor could provide you with prescription medication for more severe pain, but this is obviously something that should not be consumed for anything that's just moderate.

  8. Some other complications that you might feel include numbness around your tongue, your chin, or your lip & this will be temporary & you shouldn't be alarmed.

  9. You should be aware that if there is any type of numbness on your lips or tongue you might not feel it if you bite down on your lip.

  10. If your temperature in the body persists for multiple days after having your wisdom teeth removed you can contact your oral surgeon.

  11. As the body sends more white blood cells, you may notice inflammation around the mouth and pressure in the ears.

  12. This inflammation can sometimes also feel a bit painful, especially in the more delicate parts of the ears.

  13. Pressure and Swelling in the Ears

  14. After you've had your wisdom teeth removed, it is not uncommon to have a sore throat or pain when you are swallowing.

  15. Your muscles will get swollen, so the act of swallowing could become painful & you might even have stiffness in your jaw muscles which is completely normal.

  16. Pain in your ear is very similar to this as of these components in your head are linked, so when a tooth is removed from inside your jaw, it's going to result in swelling and stiffness in other parts of the body.

  17. As all of these muscles swell, it places pressure on other parts of the body inside the head - specifically, around the ears & all of this pressure is what causes the pain inside your ears.

  18. Final Thoughts

  19. If the pain of the swelling gets significantly worse and your symptoms are unusual, it is important to call your dentist for more information.

  20. It is important to remember that your case is unique & no two people and no two mouths are alike, so any issues you might be having should not be discussed with your well-intended friends
