I am a type 2 diabetic, just had 10 teeth extracted.  I also have heart disease and hypertention.  I had a artery stent placed in 2006.  It has been 9 days and I am having some terrible pain in a place called the septum.  This bone was coming through my gums after the extraction and is very painful.   What can I do.  It seems like it is staying hot and swelled up and not healing.
Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor, I have gone through your query, as you have type 2 diabetic as you know healing is delayed in this You take proper course of antibiotics given by your dentist and after 24 hrs do warm saline gargle two - three times a day If healing still doesn't occur then consult your dentist for Irrigation and ZOE Pack Hope this will help you.
