well it will be a week tomorrow. They put immediate Upper plate in, but I have to tell ya.. Even after this amt of time. I still have swelling, the left side of my face feels like I got into a punching match.. I still have pain. So like clockwork, I take 1400mgs between Ibuprofin AND Acetaminophen every 6 hrs along with amoxicillan. I do use fixodent on the plate, but now it feels as is its cutting.. ( I dont see any cuts, it just feels like it) To help with the hard aches in my jaw, I use a heating pad..
I still only eat very soft foods. and I mean soft. I just dont know how long this is supposed to last. I went to my dentist 2 days after the surgery, they were adjusted, he said I was healing very well. But my god.. pls someone help and tell me what else I can do to ease the pain. this is almost unbareable. Yes they gave me pain meds, but it doesnt work near as good as the combo I take. Thank u for ur time and help with this..
