  5. I have wisdom teeth coming up, and since there's no space, it's tearing the skin in my mouth. On top of that, I've been dealing with canker sores next to the tooth for the past three days. My right jaw is a little swollen and the pain is unbearable. I also feel feverish and have a mild headache. Can you suggest any remedies for this?

It sounds like you're experiencing a painful situation with your wisdom teeth, possibly leading to infection or irritation. I recommend rinsing your mouth with warm saltwater to soothe the pain, using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, and applying a topical ointment for the canker sores. However, given the swelling, fever, and persistent pain, it's important to see a dentist or oral surgeon as soon as possible to assess if theres an infection or need for extraction.
