I had a root canal and an extraction on lower left side this past Monday. Very little pain and all good till Wed. Woke up in alot of pain thought maybe it was from grinding my teeth while sleeping. Got better through out the day and now it being Sat I am in quite abit of pain. The whole bottom part of my left jaw hurts upto my ear and feels hot to me ( not to the touch) kind of a burning stbbing pain. Was thinking either dry socket or infection? Any ideas? Hate to call dentist on a Sat night but may have to. Thanks Heather
