Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
So sorry to hear about your problem and will try my level best to resolve it to the best of my knowledge and experience..
As per your complain swelling and intense pain in wisdom tooth area with gum extremely swollen and discharge of white stuff that is pus is all due to a condition known as
PERICORONITIS and it occurs due to inflammation of gum flap around wisdom tooth..
It occurs when there is food and debris accumulation between the gum flap and wisdom tooth that leading to bacterial proliferation causing infection and inflammation leading to swelling of the gum flap..
As the wisdom tooth lies close to throat therefore infection and inflammation in the area of wisdom tooth can cause inflammation and pain in throat..
In your case it seems to be a severe case of Pericoronitis and not
strep throat or
Tonsillitis..
You should immediately consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical examination will be done..
You can be advised a course of antibiotics like
Augmentin, anti inflammatory painkiller like
Ibuprofen and also gargle with
betadine mouthwash..
Once the swelling slightly reduces you can be advised Operulectomy that is surgical removal of the gum flap to prevent recurrence..
Extraction of
impacted wisdom tooth can however be a permanent resolution and can also be done..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.
