What Causes Cheek To Be Warm And Red After Removing Wisdom Teeth?
My daughter had her wisdom teeth removed 3 days ago and the healing process has seemed to be proceeding normally. Today though, her right cheek is bright pink and feels warm to the touch. She states that there is no additional pain compared the left side. She has been taking her antibiotics and a prednisone taper as prescribed. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic. It can be possible that while removal of wisdom tooth she might had a trauma from the instruments on the inside of cheek and now it is spreading, better that once you should visit your dentist again and the area properly examined. Hope it will help you.
