Wisdom Teeth Extraction Was Done And I Feel Nauseous. Underlying Cause?
I just had my top wisdom teeth pulled thursday. This round was better than the bottoms i had out a month ago but then yesturday i felt nausious...thinking it was because i took pain medicine on an empty stomach i stopped pain meds 100%. Today i still feel nautious and forcing myself to eat to tale pain meds. My dr always yells at me for eating when i have the flu because i get dehydrated easily. I think i have the flu. What do i do?? I just had surgery thursday.

Hello,Thank you for consulting with health care magic.
As you are mentioning that you got your tooth removed on Thursday and you are feeling nausea now than it is not associated with the extraction.
The symptoms you are feeling can be because of the painkillers only it will be better for you that you should take an antacid daily before breakfast to avoid the symptoms.
Or consult your Dr to change the medications.
Hope it will help you.

hi thanks for your query.wisdom tooth are extracted by surgical extraction.healing process takes some time ,as the procedure is very time consuming the patient feel numbness at the site of extraction,pain ,swelling,fever, wash out feeling.nauseous feeling is because of the medications.some antibiotics and pain killers tend to increase acidity and tend to cause nauseous feeling.consult your dentist and ask him to change medication.nothing to worry .hope this is helpful.
