Extreme pain from wisdom teeth?
Hello, wisdom teeth have been growing in and I've been in a lot of pain. ignored it thinking was just growing pain, but other day I had a very sharp jolt of pain to my jaw and my head, lost my hearing after for few seconds. got hearing after, and felt weak with pain in neck and head like never before. neck felt swollen. went to the ER, and told me that teeth were triggering lympnodes and facial nerves? But intense pain, weakness, swelling, ear pain, throat pain keep happening. Diagnosed wrong?
