Hurting Tongue While The Wisdom Tooth Is Coming. Is It Normal?

I'm having pain right where my wisdom tooth is coming in on the side on my tongue and guams really bad and it left a white small dot under my tongue and I popped it and just a little old came out is that normal? And is it normal to have your tongue hurt on the side? And it looks like my gum is on top of my wisdom tooth as well in the middle of it is that normal?

Hello and welcome.

Thanks for sharing your concern.

Wisdom teeth could be fully or partially impacted.This causes food accumulation and recurrent infection.It appears that your gum is infected and whenever touching the tongue it hurts.it is best to go for clinical examination once.

Please see your dentist soon in this regard.The small dot could be an abscess.Therefore see your dentist You might require a course of antibiotic and analgesics.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.
Take care.
