Hard lump after Wisdom teeth removal?

Question

I know it's not baby related but has anyone else had a hard, red lump in their cheek after getting their wisdom teeth removed? Of course I had to use google and it said it was an infection. I would like to know if it's normal before I make an appointment at the dentist for nothing

Answer

It could be built up fluid from where they gave you an injection.  You can just call the office.  Most of the time they will run and check what the dr says and tell you if you to come in or not.

Answer

Yeah it was an infection and 2 of my blood clots came out so I had to have medicine packed into the holes and get antibiotics

Answer

I had that too. It was an infection.

Answer

You should mention it when you go in for it to get checked. There is usually a check up after wisdom teeth removal a week later. I wouldn't worry about it if you have that coming up. But I would call sooner if it's hurting or getting bigger.
