Is Sore Throat, Difficulty In Swallowing Normal Due To Ulcer On Ulva Caused By Removal Of Wisdom Tooth?
I had my bottom wisdom tooth taken out, straight after my ulva felt like it was stuck in my throat. For 6 days I have had a very sore throat and I cant eat, drink or swallow my spit. I went to the hospital and I was told that I had a ulcer on my ulva caused by the operation. is this common?. And how long will it take until I feel better.

Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
Although the condition doesnot appear to be very common but need not worry.Sometimes a traumatic extraction of tooth can cause ulcers.
You will be fine soon.you can apply ointment Dologel on the affected ares for a week and simultaneously start antibiotics and analgesics.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
