My daughter is traveling in New Zealand and is experiencing pain in her jaw due to an impacted wisdom tooth.  Her face is swollen and she has trouble opening her mouth.  She has been in pain fo 4 days.  She is going back to Okinawa, Japan at an Air Force base on Saturday.  Is it dangerous for her to fly?  Can she wait to have it taken care of when she gets home?  What can she do for swelling and pain?
Hello and welcome. Thanks for sharing your concern. Your daughter can start antibiotics and analgesics for five days and simultaneously ask her to do warm saline rinses too. Get them prescribed through your dentist or family physician. Swelling should come down then she can visit her dentist and get the teeth extracted. Hope it helps. Thanks. Take care.
