I can’t open my mouth properly since having the anaesthetic, how long will this last?

Q. I had an impacted wisdom tooth removed on Friday afternoon. I was able to open my mouth, but once the anesthetic wore off I couldn’t. I have been taking painkillers every four hours but it is still slightly painful. Is this normal? How long will this last?,
A. hi unfortunately this condition is called trismus and will heal with time but keep taking the anti inflammatory relief to take the swelling down
