Wisdom Teeth Extractions Yes or No?

Question:
Tooth is broke off, flat to gum line. I have an appointment to get it pulled but that is over 2 weeks away The tooth doesn't hurt but my throat keeps feeling like I'm choking and its going to swell shut. Not sure if this is my tooth or my anxiety due to the tooth. Also, I am on ery-tab and ibprofin! ...Tiffany in MI

Answer:
Tiffany, you need to find some dentist or oral surgeon that can see you TODAY! You may also be experiencing a very unusual reaction to the erythromycin.

I would recommend you take over the counter Benadryl right away (25 mg. every 8 hours) and see if the swelling goes down.
