I woke up today and my right cheek is swollen again. I had the surgery a month ago and all was fine. I'm not in any pain. Is this normal and what should I do?

Micowave some moist washcloths foe 1 minute and apply to the swelling 20 min. on and 20 off. Also take some Advil, this is anti-inflamatory.
If still swollen in 1 week see a dentist.

That sounds undesirable. If the Dentist who worked on you isn't an oral physician, then you could desire to pass to an oral physician for a seek for suggestion from. If he's, then pass to a distinctive oral physician for a seek for suggestion from. For one, you mustn't are transforming into an infection on account which you have been on antibiotics. The long stiches could have been bothersome even with the shown fact that it is not a reason for an infection... basically inflammation. it is likewise been 2 months so which you mustn't have to any extent further issues. some thing could desire to have long previous incorrect interior the healing. I as quickly as had a affected person who got here in for a seek for suggestion from, wherein a bubble looked on a already healed extraction section. My Oral physician pal stated that it did not heal precise and that there could desire to be an air pocket or basically a pocket below the gum. He stated it could could desire to be incised and then stitched up back. i don't think of the hot scientific syringe could do something. No, you mustn't take those ultimate antibiotics.

It is not normal and you need to call your dentist right away. You might have some type of infection that is causing the swelling but one month is too long to have your cheek swell up.
