"Why Does Wisdom Tooth Inflammation Cause Dizziness?"

Headaches occurring during wisdom tooth inflammation may be caused by local inflammatory reactions, infection spread, toxin absorption, qi and blood deficiency, electrolyte imbalance, and other factors. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly, and under the guidance of a doctor, targeted general and pharmacological treatments can be administered. Details are as follows:

1. Local Inflammatory Reaction

During wisdom tooth inflammation, local tissue swelling and inflammatory reactions may occur, which can lead to pain in the head or face, subsequently causing dizziness. Patients can take medications such as Metronidazole Tablets, Ornidazole Tablets, or Tinidazole Tablets under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Infection Spread

Wisdom tooth inflammation may lead to local infections that can spread to surrounding tissues, triggering a systemic inflammatory response and resulting in dizziness. Medications such as Amoxicillin Capsules, Cefixime Tablets, or Cefprozil Tablets can be prescribed by a doctor to treat the infection. As the infection is controlled, dizziness symptoms may gradually improve.

3. Toxin Absorption

During wisdom tooth inflammation, toxins produced by bacteria may be absorbed into the body through the bloodstream, causing systemic toxic symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Patients can take nerve-nourishing medications such as Mecobalamin Tablets, Vitamin B12 Tablets, or Oryzanol Tablets under the guidance of a doctor for relief.

4. Qi and Blood Deficiency

In patients with wisdom tooth periodontitis, if the infection spreads to affect the respiratory system, leading to qi and blood deficiency, it may also cause brain hypoxia, resulting in intolerable dizziness. Patients can take qi and blood-enriching medications such as Shengui Yangrong Pills, Buzhong Yiqi Pills, or Renshen Jianpi Pills under the guidance of a doctor.

5. Electrolyte Imbalance

In patients with wisdom tooth inflammation, if the infection spreads to affect electrolyte functions, it may lead to electrolyte imbalance, causing intolerable dizziness symptoms related to wisdom tooth periodontitis. Medications such as Compound Sodium Chloride Tablets, Potassium Chloride Tablets, or Sodium Bicarbonate Injection can be prescribed by a doctor for treatment.

In addition to the above reasons, it may also be caused by swelling of the wisdom tooth. Daily life should involve maintaining oral hygiene, drinking plenty of water, and getting sufficient rest to reduce the risk of wisdom tooth inflammation.
