Answered by Dr. Kopal Vij

Wisdom teeth can sometimes cause throat pain, especially if they are impacted or infected. When these molars emerge, they can push against adjacent teeth, leading to discomfort in the jaw and throat area. Additionally, infection or inflammation around the wisdom teeth may contribute to throat pain. If you're experiencing persistent discomfort, it's advisable to consult with an oral surgeon for an in depth evaluation.

Answered by Shruti Samant

An abscessed tooth can cause significant pain, and can also cause bacteria to spread throughout your mouth, resulting in a sore throat. This is most common with the lower wisdom teeth. 

You can also experience additional symptoms like

  1. Headaches, soreness, and discomfort in the jaw can all be symptoms of an infected wisdom tooth. 
  2. You could even notice clearly swollen, inflammatory, and red tissue next to the impacted tooth. 
  3. In extreme circumstances, you could even become feverish and experience difficulty swallowing or opening your mouth.
  4. The best course of action for a wisdom tooth infection is extraction, followed by thorough cleaning of the tissue and socket below. Your symptoms will go away after your tooth is out, and your mouth will recover rapidly.

My son accidentally swallows a bipilac tablet

Male | 13

If your little boy has swallowed a Bipilac tablet by mistake, don't panic. The most frequent symptoms of ingestion are upset stomach and perhaps some vomiting or diarrhea. The reason for this is that the stomach doesn’t like the pill. To make him feel better, make sure he drinks plenty of water and keep an eye on him constantly. It’s important to observe any strange behavior in your child and if there is any, call your local poison control centre at once.

I am 43 years old and I have toothache for past one month. While drinking water getting sensitive. Can you share how to cure this toothache

Male | 43

A toothache can occur when your tooth has a problem. The sensitivity or pain you feel when drinking water may be a cavity or dental caries. This can bring discomfort and at the same time make your tooth sensitive to extreme-temperature liquids. Advising patients to visit a dentist as soon as possible is beneficial to help manage toothache. They can investigate the tooth and give proper solutions which might involve filling the cavity or other pain relief procedures to improve the situation.
