It's now day two of my wisdom teeth recovery, and it looks like someone sucker-punched me about seven times. Minus the bruising. My cheeks are huge, which is weird because they weren't too bad yesterday and it seems like overnight they just ballooned up.
Luckily the pain still isn't too bad. I've taken less medication today than I did yesterday, so the fact that I feel less pain with less medication is a good thing. I'm hoping to be pain free by Saturday. The only thing left to deal with then would be the swelling. I keep putting ice on them to try and cut it down a little bit, but it's just not working.
Two things I really, really want to do though: (1) eat solid food and (2) leave my house. I've already made it past the 24 hour mark on my lock-down, but I don't know how much longer I'm going to be stuck in the house and it's killing me. It's been nothing but soup, juice, and sweatpants since I got home after surgery, and I need a change of pace. Stat.
