Hey all, I had tooth LL6 (lower left molar) removed on Friday because it was infected. Since then I have been in a constant state of anxiety about anything happening to it.
I have a low pain tolerance and am really squeamish so even though I should be on soft normal food by now I haven’t gotten past eating stuff like yoghurt and drinking milkshakes for the calories (because I haven’t been eating).
I’m trying to pluck up the courage to eat some soft pasta but I keep getting this sinking feeling that I will injure the socket or cause myself pain in some way.
Can anyone help? Am I being too nervous right now or is there just cause to still be on liquids 4 days after extraction? Is it safe to try and eat pasta when the extraction is filled over with white tissue (healing)?
Thank you in advance for any replies!
