What Causes Swelling In Eyes Along With Fatigue After Tooth Extraction?
Question: I had a lower molar extracted 5 days ago, there was a large amount of infection that they also pulled out. I am not feeling well and am extremely tired, my eyes are swollen and so are my glands. Is this normal? I have been on amoxicillin 825mg BID ever since but did not have pre-treatment.
Brief Answer:
Yes, that's normal.
Detailed Answer:
Hello

Some amount of post extraction swelling and lymp node enlargement an be present.
Take the full course of medicine and rinse your mouth with a good mouthwash.
Don't worry swelling will subside in couple of days.
take care
