I'm really having a hard time with my wisdom teeth coming in since there's no space for them. It's tearing my skin in the mouth and I've also been dealing with some painful canker sores right next to that tooth for the past few days. My right jaw is a bit swollen, and the pain is just unbearable. I feel feverish with a mild headache. What should I do to get some relief?

It sounds like you're experiencing a painful situation with your wisdom teeth, possibly leading to infection or irritation. I recommend rinsing your mouth with warm saltwater to soothe the pain, using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, and applying a topical ointment for the canker sores. However, given the swelling, fever, and persistent pain, it's important to see a dentist or oral surgeon as soon as possible to assess if theres an infection or need for extraction.

View allI had a mucocele removed by minor surgery 4 months ago but now there's a red spot left. It doesn't hurt but I'm wondering if this is normal or if I should see a specialist. Which type of doctor is best for checking this? Could it be dangerous if left untreated?
Post-mucocele red spot may be normal scar tissue; if persistent, show to oral surgeon or ENT—low risk, but evaluation helps rule out recurrence.

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.
