My bottom left most tooth area hurts

[Clippy]

It all started when I seen Captain America Civil War, good movie

I had also won some money in a work lottery and thought ...fuck it, I'll buy the expensive popcorn, this is an occasion! Chomp chomp, movie movie movie, remorse, these action scenes are awesome! etc

I think I got popcorn stuck in my tooth or something cause the next day my left gums next to my bottom left tooth got sensitive and swelled up.

I dug and dug at it trying to get something out but failed, not even sure if something is in there.

I was hoping my gums would flush the thing out but it's been since Wednesday morning now and it seems to be getting worse... it hurts and doesn't feel right.

Especially in the mornings for some reason

Also my throat is sore ... is that related?

Sometimes when I swallow the left side of my face feels tight

My tooth/gum area now constantly sends slight pain signals to my brain through the day, especially this morning.

Help me Sherdog MD!

Maybe you have a popcorn kernel stuck in your gums.

Call a dentist maybe?

I hope your will is up to date.

It is, and you have been dis-included !!

Could be an impacted wisdom tooth. Definitely call your dentist. If left untreated they become a nightmare. If treated (assuming thats the issue) your wuality of health will improve beyond where it was before the pain started.

Teeth can fuck with your health in a bunch of ways and you only realise you werent in great condition after its fixed.

Be safe my ninja.

I was wondering if I just ride this out longer the swelling would go down and I would be fine. I've had my top 2 wisdom teeth taken out but not the bottom

They can rot inside the gum and cause havok, or if they arent coming through dead straight similar thing.

Im no dentist but had a scare a few years back and did a heap of research. Oral health aint no joke. A rotten tooth can cause heart disease I read.

an impacted wisdom tooth wouldn't happen overnight. Call a dentist and explain the situation. It might just be that popcorn lodged deep in the gumline, and a deep cleaning could get it out. UNLESS you cracked your tooth, cracked a prior filling.... then you could possibly need a root canal.

Does it hurt more when you chew?

Sometimes but I'm avoiding that area

I'm eating grapes currently and getting weird sensations.

I'll go to the dentist if I have to, but want to wait a bit longer to see how this plays out.

Have you tried a Waterpik? It's what I use to get popcorn hulls out.

I used one of those pointy floss stick end things and jabbed it all over, I can't tell if there's still an obstruction in there or not

There is a reason medical professional examine you in person to diagnose the problem. It's dumb for a medical professional to try to diagnose you over the internet. How much dumber to ask random people on a forum who aren't medical professionals?

Sounds like another problem you can lay at Tony Starks feet.

On an episode of Frasier this meant that Niles was going to have a heart attack. I'd go to the hospital ASAP.

Tooth AIDS imo.

Just make an appointment at the dentist. They will look in there and fix whatever the problem is. You already tried fixing it yourself, it's time to call a professional who sees bullshit like this erryday.
