I actually am having problems with the lidocaine injection. I received for two absessed teeth. The injection actually busted one absess and allowed it to drain. The other injection i received was supposed to subside in 8 hours and it hasn't subsided in 16 hours so far. is that normal or should I seek medical attention for it?
