What Causes Abdominal Pain And Diarrhea After A Dental Procedure?

hello, I got all 4 wisdom teeth pulled about a week ago. During the healing process, I became constipated & nauseous. I was taking a few different prescribed pain meds a day, along with the antiobiotics the doctor prescribed. After I stopped taking the medications, I started getting the worst stomach pains & diarrhea. I did some research and found that this could be due to the medications I was on. The pain stops me from doing day to day things, such as run errands or go to work. I can t sleep also. I havent been hungry the past couple days, so Ive been forcing Pedialyte & broccoli & brown rice & chicken down my throat. I was just wondering how much longer this is going to go on for?

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your stomach upset.

Because of antibiotics and pain killers you have the problem of constipation and upper gastritis.

You need to take food with plenty of fibers like fruits and green leafy vegetables. As the schedule of your bowl movement is deranged you need to initiate it with medication like Lactilose but don't use it regularly. Also answer the Natural call at time.

For stomach upset you can take pantoprazole 40 mg empty stomach in morning.

Hope my answer will help you and you can write us back if you have any further question.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray
