I had a really bad tooth infection so my dentist prescribed me Erythromicin,since I am allergic to penicillin. After taking that for a day the next morning I woke up and my face was HUGE. My jaw looked like it had a softball in it. I continued taking the meds and after being on them almost 3 days still no luck with the swelling. I went to the dentist and he drained my gums and pulled the tooth. The swelling has gone down a bit since then but it has been 24 hours since the draining and the tooth extraction and 4 days on antibiotics and I still have about a golf ball size swelling. Just want it to be gone! Any idea how much longer until I will look normal?!
