I recently had my wisdom teeth pulled and would like to know is there any method besides ice that will help reduce the swelling quick and easy in about a day or so.

Ibuprofen may help a little with the inflammation, but ice is the best way. Also, make sure you rinse like your supposed to, because if it gets infected it will stay swollen.

Sorry, but ice is the only way immediately after extraction.
Good Luck !

Hell no! You need to go back to the dentist. I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled at the same time and it only took 2 weeks for the swelling to go down. Your dentist needs to go back in your gums and get the the tooth or teeth he left in your mouth.
