Constant Dizziness, Worsened While Looking Up Or Down, Getting Up Quickly. History Of Start Of Dizziness While Extracting Wisdom Tooth. Help

I'm experiencing a little dizziness that doesn't seem to go away. Especially if I move quickly or look down or up. If I'm laying down and get up quickly, it is at it's worst.
I had this about a year ago and it went away. Now I can't seem to shake it. It's been about a month now. It started when a dentist put me to sleep to extract a wisdom tooth last month.

Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

Constant dizziness followed with extraction of wisdom tooth may be due to-unhealed extraction socket.

Overstrained work shedule ,anxiety and stress can also cause this.

Take adequate rest and avoid anxiety.

Irrigate the socket with betadine and apply eugenol into the socket.

I would suggest you to take augmentin-625mg as well as analgesic with muscle relaxant.

Take nutritious diet as well as plenty of fruits and fluids.Also monitor your blood sugar level and blood pressure .

If symptoms persists,please do visit a dentist.

Hope this helps.
