Avatar f tn I was never advised of the risks of this surgery (that I could have permanent nerve damage or that I would be left with a huge ball like scar in the center of my lip. My lip is still swollen causing my lip to be exposed to the air (it feels raw all the time). The scar is hardening and it hurts ( I can also feel a band that runs horizontel along the incision line. I have seen an example of a mucocele surgery on the internet and it looks nothing like what this oral surgeon did to me.

Avatar f tn I just had my 4 impacted wisdom teeth pulled a week ago and ever since the surgery I have had numbness in my lower lip on the left side. Also, my front teeth on the bottom left feel like they are numb/loose. Is this common? I figured that a nerve was bruised but how long does it normally take on average for a nerve to heal? Will this be permanent? Thank you for any feedback or past experiences posted.

Avatar n tn I had surgery for stomach cancer Feb 5, 2013 and it was determine that the cancer had gotten into my lip nodes. I completed chemo, chemo/radiation and more chemo. Now that my treatment is completed I still have pain on my upper left side and the doctors have not been able to determine the cause. I’ve had EGD, CT, small bowel series, and x-rays. I am taking 4-5 pain pills (Norco) daily. The pain varies from moderate to severe. Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions this is driving me crazy.
Avatar f tn I still have numbness in my lower left side of mouth. The teeth, gums, lip and chin. My dentist months later said she sees nothing wrong. Is this wrong??
633670 tn?1389223411 I had the trigger thumb surgery on both hand, it was the easiest surgery to have. You really need a good attitude going in. Never had a problem since.
Avatar m tn some blood did come out, but now on this day it looks as though it could be a wart on my lip, it has the white area like a wart, there is a hole in the middle of it (an injection site), maybe it could be a bug bite ? ive been putting ACV and neosporin on it. not sure what to do. in the pics u cant really see the white circle but i assure its there (maybe in the last pic you can see it, be sure to scroll down). i am pressing my tongue against my lip to try to get it more exposed.
Avatar n tn A while later, the dentist returned, when asked if my lower lip was numb I responded that the top was numbed, the dentist was surprised and gave me more injections and immediately began drilling. I let the dentist know that there was a lot of pain, so the dentist, I believe, gave me more injections, and then left to give the anesthesia time to work. Upon returning, my lip was numb, so the dentist began drilling again, but it was still extremely sensitive, so even more anesthesia was given.
Avatar n tn Hi, I also had a surgery to my lower lip 3 weeks ago. I had an accident 20 years ago, fell and bit through my lip. I had a couple of stitches at the time and after, developped a large hard lump on my lip. I had it "removed" 8 years ago but there was still some bump left. So 3 weeks ago, I decided to do it again and for the last time. It looks flat in front of my lip and this is good BUT there is a lot of hard tissue inside the lip and some hard swelling in the inner lip.
Avatar f tn if so would that require surgery or an injection? My daughter in law is getting a weekly abdominal shot, supposedly for stage 2 ovarian cancer, but I'm not confident about this treatment. She's only 20 years old.
Avatar n tn It depends on the preferences of the surgeon and the patient. The local anesthesia injection was very effective at eliminating any sensation of pain for me during two retinal surgeries (ERM peels). Supplementary IV sedation can also be provided to reduce anxiety, to produce sedation, and to eliminate any memories of the surgery. General anesthesia might also be used for very anxious or uncooperative patients.
Avatar n tn After cataract surgery, I had PVD and accummulation of fluid at back of my eye. I kept losing vision rapidly. I also had Macular edema. Had floaters, flashes etc. with lot of pain at back of my eye. I visited Emergency OPD at hospital but no specific tests were done to my eye at early stage such as Floursene Angigraphy or OCT. I kept complaining to Doctors that my vision was diminishing quite rapidly. One and half month later I was completely blind. Dr sent me for MRI test of brain.
Avatar n tn Doctors, your advice would be very much appreciated. Several weeks ago, I went in to see my dentist for a new crown. After the first injection of anesthetic didn't take, he injected me with another. In the process, a shooting electric like shock went through my lower jaw. He explained this was because he had hit the nerve but it would be alright. Since then, I have been back to him complaining of pain in my teeth along my lower jaw. The only relief I get is from ibuprofen.
Avatar m tn Injections like Synvisc act as a supplement to the normal joint fluid and help in joint lubrication during the joint motion. They are usually given to delay the joint replacement surgeries. However, it does not replace the joint with the "normal" joint fluid since it is absorbed and cleared from the joint within a week (hence you have to take it every week). I would not say that it is totally useless since there have been observed benefits of this injection in some patients.
172023 tn?1334672284 The vet said that some dogs with a deep lip fold have to have surgery to smooth out the fold and prevent the moisture that fosters the infection, or they just have to constantly be on an antibiotic. Um...not anxious to do either one of those choices. Did some research online, and found that German Shepherds often seem to suffer from this lip fold pyoderma. A GSD forum talked about using a cream called Penaten cream. Several of the people had good results.

356518 tn?1322263642 t been on as much and it is because I have been having some problems. I had some injections done and the injection site became infected. Needless to say this is very painful! The medication they used leaked under the skin and became inflamed and infected and this is not really common but there have been a lot of reports of this happening so I urge everyone to be aware of this. I am doing much better now and hope to be here a lot more.
Avatar f tn At 11 days pot surgery, it is far too early to consider any effective treatment modality for your lip. Depending on the ultimate outcome of your surgery (which may take four to six months for scar maturation, your options range from scar revision to selective fat grafting. Your condition obviously needs to be discussed with your treating surgeon.
Avatar n tn My husband has had cataract surgery in both eyes, and later ended up with detached retinia in each eye. Today, after all the surgeries, He is having trouble with bleeding into my right eye. This has happened about 7 times in the past 8 months. Takes several days to clear up. After the 2nd incident, the surgeon lazered the eye. Now he has him scheduled for a avastin injection. I am frightened that it will lead to another detached retinia, or infection, or total lose of vision.
Avatar m tn Hi l am having cataract surgery later this year, l saw a youtube video where a guy who had cataract surgery was given a needle either in or near his eye before surgery , l think it was either to numb the pain or to stop his eyes from moving during surgery, he said he had some long term problems from it. If you don't want any needles pre surgery as ananesthetic or keep your eyes still can you have the option of just having eye drops only? .
Avatar n tn He said there are no dangers of blindness, and in a few days the effects should be realized. I am always worried about steroids in the eyes. Is this steroid injection a safe practice for my conditon? I already have glaucoma in that eye and have had filtration surgery, so my IOP is 9 in that eye. what kind of complications might I look for, and how long does this injection typically take before any reaction is noticed?
Avatar m tn Scar tissue developed leaving me with what appeared to be a permanent fat lip. About a year and half ago, I had cosmetic surgery to eliminate this. For the first six months, it looked great. You could hardly notice that anything had ever happened to my lip. After the first six months, the scar tissue started to show again, and has developed since then.
