No, they didn't pack it with anything; I think they omly do that if you develop a "dry socket" and they have to pack it with clove oil and other stuff. Mine was not bad at all, and I am a wuss, EVERYTHING hurts me. On the first day of surgery I was on Vicodin and felt NOTHING, on a pain scale of 1-10 it was a 1 probably. The worst part was first coming home and drooling blood out of my mouth and it spilled all over my white tank top and looked gruesome, but it was not painful. This was because I was trying to drink water with gauze stuck in my mouth. To be honest, it hurts more when I just bleach my teeth, it was not bad at all!!
I think the Vicodin the prescribed made me feel the worst, it was way too strong for me, 500 mg and I am extremely small in size and couldn't swallow mashed potatoes down the first night, so all I had was liquids and the drugs made me nauseous, but luckily I did not throw up!
