I had a wisdom tooth extraction on November 2nd. I was prescribed clindamycin (antibodies) as a precaution. Well, as a result I develop a yeast infection. My primary doctor prescribed fluconuzole and I don't know if I should take it and cancel my surgery or surgery can go on as plan.

This is one of the challenges of being so far away from your surgeon. I encourage you to discuss these concerns with your surgeon. You may be able to have video calls for post op appointments but you will likely need to be prepared to return to your surgeon if a complication arises.

This is an important question that you've asked but it needs to be answered by your surgery team. It is vital they are aware and have approved of any medications that you take the day of surgery. This is for your safety. Please review with your surgeon.
