Fluid common out from area where wisdom teeth were take out?
I got mine taken out about 7 days ago. The same thing happened to me on sunday and I freaked out and called my dentist and he said it's perfectly normal and its a VERY good thing that it's happening. It means you are healing well. A reason why your cheeks get swollen in the first place is becuase there is a buildup of fluids. And so all of the fluids have to escape somehow. They either ending up coming out of the wound...or they gradually become taken away by your cells. The right side of my face got the 'puss in the mouth' one...and i know it tastes bad but its relaly good..but my left side hasn't done it yet. i hope it does though b/c then all my swelling would be gone and i'd feel a lot better.
but don't worry, you're healing VERY fast actually so I hope everything else goes well! keep up the cleanliness

I got mine taken out and think it's normal. But why not call your doctors office just to ease your mind. :))
