It's been 3 days since I got my left upper and lower wisdom teeth removed, but my left temple keeps hurting nonstop and I can't sleep at night. Plus, the left side of my tongue still feels numb what's going on? Is this normal or should I be worried?

It's possible your symptoms are related to a few things after wisdom tooth removal, including a dry socket, nerve damage, or inflammation. While some pain and numbness are normal after surgery, severe or persistent pain, particularly in the temple, and a numb tongue lasting more than a few days warrant a call to your dentist or oral surgeon.

I'm on day 3 after having my left-side wisdom teeth removed, both upper and lower, and I've been having a lot of pain in my left temple. It's so bad that I can't sleep at night. I'm also worried because the left side of my tongue is still numb. What's going on here? Could you help me understand what's happening and what I should do?
