I just got my bottom two wisdom teeth yanked! I feel like I just got punched in the jaw! I'm bleeding like I did too. OWIE!!!!!!!! I look like a chipmunk too! I decided to do local anesthesia, and supposedly took it like a champ! But now I am hurtin'!!! I don't like to take drugs either... so I am trying to tough it out. I can even swallow water! WTH?! Water is neutral!!! It shouldn't hurt! ARG!!!
oh ow...that sucks...yea getting your mouth messed with is one of the worst things in my opinion....
I feel for ya! Had all four done when I was 17 and it put me down for three days. So much for the young healing faster!
Hang in there Kiddo...big bro sendin' good vibes your way.:thumbup:
Feel better soon.
Ouch! That doesn't sound like fun at all. On the positive side, think of all the room your mouth will have without those awful wisdom teeth in the way. Trust me your mouth will thank you for this later.
I hope your recovery is quick and the pain eases by the hour.
Peace.

My sympathies to you. I just had all four of mine yanked and it took me out for the better part of two days. I hope you got the dissolvable stitches as I have to go in nest week and have them removed >.> They wouldn't let me do local and put me down.
My lower jaw was numb for about a day. I had to touch my lower lip when I was drinking something so I knew I wasn't chewing my lip off! Just relax for a few days and you will be fine. Remember no crunchy foods for a couple weeks, unless you like the taste of blood! :eek:
im getting mine pulled out soon!!
Sleep heals, but if it hurts too much to lie down and sleep take the meds.
You won't heal quickly if you get zero sleep.
I don't like to take meds either, but the first night or 2 with something like that I would.

Been There...Tough it out, And we know you will...:D:goof::D:goof:

I guess "rub some dirt on it & walk it off", "cowboy up" & Robitussin, would all be considered bad advice in this application...:rolleyesg
My dentist keeps bugging me to take out mine and I keep telling him to go f#%$ himself.:p
Best of luck for a speedy recovery.
Everyone recovers differently so listen to your body & let it recover at it's own pace. Twin Bro & I had ours out the same day when we were kids. I was up washing the car 3 hours later - he slept for 2 days.
Had mine plucked in college. They were impacted so I had to go the route of having them broken up and then having the pieces taken out. Didnt sound pleasant but I was knocked out during the process.
My body is fairly immune to pain so I really didnt have any after effects that hampered me. Hell, I had the cotton in for a few hours after I was home but by nightfall, I was out with the guys drinking at the local watering hole. Never even filled my prescription for meds, heh.
I think all those younger years of ALWAYS being broken and in casts and stitches prepared me for a lifetime of pain. :bgwg:
You'll be good to go in no time. If anything, if you ever have allergies, you'll probably notice a decrease in having issues with them. Losing the wisdoms takes some sort of pressure of of your sinus or some such. Helped me a ton with this MD/DC humidity/pollen.
