Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,


I have gone through your query, as you have swollen lymph nodes after extraction of wisdom tooth dont worry it is normal if it persists for 15 days .

If it is more then that you should consult dentist for examination of lymph nodes and investigations.

Swelling in neck can be due to periodontal problem also so go for oral prophylaxis ,

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

Hope it will help you.
