What Is The Remedy For The Swollen Retro Molar Which Is Very Painful?
Hello, I have a swollen retromolar (trigone?) on my left side and it's very painful. I'm 30 and have never had any of my wisdom teeth pulled and most are almost out but the one on the bottom left is only about two-thirds out. The area around these molars has been sore before every once in a while, but this time it is extremely painful.
My questions are:
1) is this pain likely to go away eventually like in the past?
2) if I do have to see the dentist, is it important to see someone right away (including ER if necessary), or would it be okay to wait a couple of days?
Thank you!
