Suggest Treatment For Yellow Brown Lump On Wisdom Tooth Extracted Area
i have a yellow brown lump with what looks like nerves intertwined all over it growing where my wisdom tooth was extracted 7 days ago. I have tremendous pain in my head and throbbing pain in my throat and ear. The pain is mind numbing and the way the lump looks is freaking me out. Theres is also a bad smell and taste in my mouth. The back of my throat and surrounding mouth are also yellow tinted I am going to the dentist tomorrow to see what is going on. I was told it is a liver clot, but it is not red or bloody looking like what I've seen online. What do you think this is?

hellooo...read thru ur symptoms and i feel that it must be a dry socket since u have pain and bad taste...but dont worry...go to dentist he will prescribe u antibiotics and analgesic..and he may place a sedative dressing in the socket for few days and recall u..meanwhile u do salt water gargle twice daily...dont spit hard as it may dislodge blood clot and cause infection and delay healing...dont touch the area with finger or tongue...be cool..meet dentist!!hope ur benefitted something with this reply..have a healthy day!!
