By definition, acute cough is one lasting <3 weeks, sub-acute cough lasts 3-8 weeks, and chronic cough lasts >8 weeks [8]. Most acute coughs raise minimal concerns among health practitioners as they are generally caused by URTIs, usually have a short duration, and are self-limited.
Healing is a complicated procedure after tooth extraction. It may take from 3 to 5 weeks in normal person but it will take longer in diabetic patient, presence of infection after extraction, malnutrition, complicated surgical extraction, and smoking. Complete healing with bone deposition and remodeling will take from 3 to 6 months.
Add your answer. How long does it take for the gums to heal after a molar (upper) extraction? I had a molar extracted 2.5 weeks ago. I just looked at the void last night and there is a hole still there - I looked because my cheek/gum felt swollen. Is that normal? How long will that take to heal - can I start running again?
