Read the post surgery guidelines, changing out the gauze every 30 mins with a clean dry set... Dad dropped me off from the doctors office then went to get the pain meds and also came back with like 20 cans of soup (not the chunky kind), 3 packs of jello, among other things. Man, I love my dad! 
Watching this test shot thing that they are doing on CNN. They have some cameras and reporters driving into the Gulf of Mexico to show us the oil plumes and such. One guy just said that he has never seen so much "dust" in the water... PLANKTON MAYBE? Also seeing a bunch of sharks swimming around.
He suggested it might be a by-product of the dispersant.... now the audio just went out... now it is back...
BTW, that anesthesia stuff is awesome. You feel so trippy and carefree and you really don't feel a thing even though they are definitely cutting your mouth to pieces to dig out the wisdom teeth. The doctor applied some freezing product to my hand and started the IV for the anesthesia using the entrance he made with a large needle... Fun right!? Did not feel much when the needle went in, but I could kinda feel where it was...
Next few hours are going to be fun... |
Roll up tea bags and place them between the cheek and gum next to the removal area. the tannic acid in the tea will help control the swelling.
Worked for me...2 lower wisdom teeth, impacted wrapped in nerves. 4 1/2 hours per tooth. Both on same day. Dr filled the deep holes in my Jaw with HCR (Human Cadaver bone ground up and mixed with Epoxy) bonded to my jaw in 3 days and stopped my back molars from dropping out. For pain N02, Novacane during, Motrin and a big doobie before did the trick for me...Perc came afterwards.
