I got all my wisdom teeth pulled this past Friday (3 days ago) and everytime that I swallow, somethings I feel like I'm going to get that dry socket thing or pull my stiches out. Even though I have no bleeding anymore and such I just have that feeling like I'm going to do something to the holes.
I don't think that I have the dry socket thing becuase I'm not in as much pain as I was yesterday and I'm not sucking on anything but I feel like when I swallow something then I am even If I'm not. Anyone else experience this?
All 4 Wisdom Teeth Pulled?
If your still swollen, it feels funny when you swallow. Thats normal, so no worries.
If you have stopped bleeding, you have nothing to worry about. The clot/scabbing process has fully covered the site and attached itself in place. Your healing process is in full swing! You wont get a dry socket. It would have happened by now. And trust me, the pain would be completely UNBEARABLE! Your sucking restriction has expired now, as well. It's ok, to suck things.. like using straws and spitting! Congrats.. you've made it through the tough part! hehe... Youve won the greatest prize ever... FOOD!!!!! Eat... and enjoy! LOL....
Reply:it is the swelling that makes it feel like that.
Reply:don't know what swallowing has to do with dry socket. if your pain is better you more than likely don't have dry socket. you will know it if you do usually by the third day. the pain will get worse.
Reply:dry sockets hurt. you would be in more pain. my oral surgeon (when i had this done) also told me that one does not get dry sockets from sucking on straws etc. he told me that it's from carbon dioxide exposure, like from smoking. your surgical spots are going to be sensitive for a while. you probably won't be able to chew normally for a couple of weeks.
Reply:I believe everyone that has had this done feels the same as you do. I too was concerned about not doing exactly as i was told but everything turned out fine and within a few days i was eating like there was no tommorrow. Try this pour salt in a cup of warm water and rinse your mouth from time to time. Relax it will be ok.
