Severe Heart Burn, Had Swallowed Considerable Blood Due To Severe Bleeding Post Wisdom Tooth Extraction. Taken Hydrocodone, Amoxacillin . What Is The Cause?
I recently had one of my wisdom teeth pulled and I guess I had a bad infection but anyways after I got it removed it was bleeding very bad for some reason but it eventually stopped but I did swallow alot of it...anyways I woke up with bad heart burn and it has not went away yet this is the 3rd day after the extraction I was just wondering if my stomach acid could be acting up because of all the blood that I drank or if I should go to the hospital...I was also on hydrocodone 5/500 ibuprofen 600mg and amoxacillin please right me back :)

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that this does not matter if you swallowed some blood, this wont be harmful but looking to your complain I would advise you to stop taking the Ibuprofen and start taking "Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day for few days, take care and have a nice day.
