Is Jaw Bone And Throat Soreness Normal After Tooth Extraction?
I had my teeth cleaned and my bottom wisdom tooth extracted 4 days ago. My jaw bone is still very sore and tender to the touch. My throat is still a little sore too; especially when I swallow... as well as the adjacent teeth ache some....is this normal in regards to recovery?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the pain will be there near around the extracted wisdom tooth if they have removed the bone while extracting the tooth. consult your oral physician and get the extracted site irrigated with saline and betadine. do saline gargling and complete the course of antibiotics and analgesics. i hope my answer will help you. take care
