What Causes Vertigo And Blurred Vision After Removal Of Tooth?

I just got my wisdom teeth removed 5 days ago and 2 were impacted, I keep experiencing vertigo and short periods of extremely blurry-no vision, is this from the surgery? I though it could ve been a reaction to the pain killers but I have been off of them for 3 days and the symptoms are only getting worse and more frequent.

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Well, vertigo and short periods of blurred vision can be due to inner ear injury or inner ear disorders post wisdom.tooth extraction while it can also be related to sinus Infection or Sinusitis post wisdom tooth extraction..

I would therefore suggest you to consult an ENT Physician or an Otorhinolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigation like complete blood picture and MRI Scan will help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

As of now you should be careful of not going out alone, do not drive or operate heavy machinery as it can cause accidents..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
