I had wisdom teeth surgery on Friday, and I've been dealing with hiccups for the past 48 hours. It's starting to really hurt my chest and is making me feel nauseous. Is this normal after surgery, or should I be concerned? What can I do to relieve these symptoms?

The hiccups, chest pain, and nausea you're experiencing could be due to a combination of surgery, medications, or temporary irritation. While its common to have some discomfort after wisdom teeth surgery, if the symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend reaching out to your dentist or oral surgeon to ensure theres no underlying complication.

I've noticed some blood in my saliva and it's starting to worry me. Could this indicate something serious, and what precautions should I take? Also, are there any specific medicines I should consider?
Blood in saliva can be caused by various reasons such as gum disease, mouth sores, or respiratory infections. To prevent further bleeding, it is important to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly. You should also avoid smoking and alcohol, as they can irritate the mouth and gums. For treatment, you can use mouthwash containing chlorhexidine to help reduce bacteria in the mouth and promote healing. In case of gum disease, you can use a gum paint containing chlorhexidine and metronidazole to reduce inflammation and infection. If the bleeding persists, it is important to consult a dentist for further evaluation and treatment.
