Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have fever after Extraction , it usually doesnt happened after extraction if you have fever then dont worry you can take medications for this .


Take Analgesic , Antipyretic like Paracetamol 500mg twice daily for 3 days

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day after 24 hrs of extraction.

If your fever continues then consult physician and go for complete haemogram .

Hope this will help you.

Wishing you good health.
