What Causes Dizziness And Stomach Discomfort After Multiple Tooth Removal?

I had all 4 my wisdom teeth and an impacted canine removed that's Wednesday. Yesterday and today I have noticed I am feeling really dizzy at times and sick to my stomach. Also there was a lil more pain running down the left side of my jaw today then I have had any other days.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain dizziness and sick feeling in stomach after wisdom tooth extraction is not exactly due to extraction procedure rather it is commonly due to side effects of the medications that is antibiotics and painkillers given to you post extraction..

You need not to worry as these symptoms are temporary and will resolve once the medicine intake is stopped..

As of now you can take Omeprazole or Pantoprazole empty stomach till you are taking medications..
Take more of probiotics like Yoghurt in diet..

As there is more pain on left side of jaw, it is due to the raw wound that is present at the extraction site and as the healing will progress, pain will subside gradually..
Continue taking the medication and also do cool compresses over the cheek..
Take semi solid and more of liquid diet..

In case if either of the conditions worsen consult your treating dentist for a clinical examination..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
