Hot damn, baws, never experienced something so painful in my life. The last two days would be what I would imagine hell to be like if it was a real thing. Wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. Time to pop some Vicodin and eat some edibles

Any similar experiences? Seriously, worst and most agonizing pain I have ever felt and I have fricked myself up pretty good a few times

Had wisdom teeth removed recently. (2) Left ones before Thanksgiving and (2) Right ones on Dec 20th.

First surgery, no issues.

Second, had nasal cavity issues. Got put on stronger antibotics and one was Metronidazole. Felt like death, looked up side effects and think that was why.

Also, I still have a small opening on my right side where if I drink water it goes down to the nerve and it feels like I am being kicked in the face by a horse.

This is what the past 48-72 hours have felt like. Go back and tell them to fix that shite

I was offered pain pills yesterday and went with 60mg of indica edibles instead. When I woke up at 2AM feeling like a train ran over my face I regretted not getting the good stuff, so I made sure to today

Went yesterday for Post Op Appointment. He said everything looks fine and that is normal.

It started on my birthday (mid November). I felt so sick and knew that it was my wisdom teeth. Went to clinic asked for antibotics to tame it down before I could set up surgery. Next day drove to ER, they referred surgery for the next week.

I felt so sick and couldnt stand or sit down upright and the dental clinic said, yeah you need a referal asap.

But yes, cant choose if its a horse kick to the mouth or lightning bolt. fricking hurts though, but way better than what I was on the 25th. Wasnt fun entertaining family and then having to call the surgeon on the non emergency number.

I needed a root canal in HS. The pain came on strong while I was in class. The only thing that gave me relief was to keep an ice cube over the tooth. One of my teachers wouldn't let me go refill a cup, so I had to sit for an hour in excruciating pain, no meds. fricking prick.

When the procedure was done, the dentist started before the numbing meds kicked in. I shot 3 feet in the air from a lying down position and repeated words in front of my mother I had not before and haven't since.

Worst pain I've ever felt.

I took a huge dosage last night and should have been so stoned I could barely move. It didn't quite work like it does in a pain-free and good state. I was able to sleep for 2-3 hours from it

Oh man. I am way better today than I was on Christmas.

The nasal cavity issue was from the top tooth when removed. I had drainage and it was disgusting. Nasty taste from what I assume infection, but meds helped.

I was in bed from the 25th-30th and felt better NYE. Smoked a bowl and that helped a bit. I also had left over pain pills from previous surgeries to edge the pain.

Smoked weed after first surgery about 3 days or so after. Had no issues and honestly believed it helped, because I didnt after second surgery and I was miserable.

Being able to walk a couple blocks and pick up edibles was such a nice luxury. Hopefully it doesn't go away any time soon (looking at you Sessions)

Had one while I was out of state in the middle of nowhere for work. Dealt with it for 4 or 5 days with no meds until I could fly back home. Ice water was the only thing that helped. Drove from the airport to the dentists office and told him that he was either giving me a root canal or pulling it today. He hooked me up with an endodonist that day and the root canal was sweet sweet relief. I didn't need any of the pain meds the endodonist game. Brought that shite back to Walgreens.

Yeah im mmj and my dispensary is an hour away and wife can't get access, only card holder.

I wish I had edibles instead of flower because I didn't want to risk infection, or pressure from a pipe.

Worked well though, but felt different from second surgery, so that's why I DIDNT smoke. Lol.

Best of luck buddy

Also drink lots of water and rinse mouth with warm salt water. That shite makes huge leaps and bounds.
