I have been at dentist yesterday and this morning I was still numb and there is swelling on my cheek. I received 2 Novocain shots. The first shot gave me instant pain on cheek. There is also pain when I touch my cheek or open my mouth wide and tingling in my lower lip. Could this be effect from Novocain?
I have problems with dentists all the time, so I decide to skip anesthesia from now on. It sounds to me like your swelling on the cheek is from internal bleeding as a result of the anesthetic injection, leading to hematoma, so it may take several days for the swelling to go down.
DId the swelling disappear and if so how long did it take
Why my brother has a face swelling? My brother's lower cheek and lip swells up from time to time. Can you give me some answers?
What causes swelling of the face cheek, but no pain, and how can I treat it?
