I don't have any swelling at all, but I have some gross brown crusty stuff on the left side of my lip where they injected something in my lips and it's a bit disgusting and dried up.... I hope it goes away soon and is not infected... I don't want to go anywhere because of my lip...
I tried to open my mouth a bit and looked inside and it was gross, but from what I can tell I think they stitched all the holes, so there's not much chance of me getting "dry socket" if I don't smoke right?
BrainDead, i took them out because one of the wisdom teeth had a bone cyst, and the surgeon said it could eat away bone and even break my jaw, plus it was growing in sideways and messing the tooth before that. All of them were growing in sideways... They also have to check the cyst to make sure there's no cancer (routine procedure)
I've been extra extra careful not to drink out of a straw, sucking anything or rinsing too hard, so hopefull no dry sockets for me.
I felt much better after eating "soft" solid foods like thin slices of ham and some neptune salad.. Those liquid drinks like Ensure were making me sick too... much better after I had some real food... I just chew with my front teeth though..
