I had 3 wisdom teeth out yesterday. I was a mess initially, i’ve been given antibiotics, ibuprofen AND very strong co-codamol but today is a different story. Although my face is completely swollen and i resemble a chipmunk my pain is bearable and i have been able to survive on just my antibiotics and ibuprofen.
I truly believe that my diet and healthy eating has contributed to my speedy recovery. I try to eat 5-8 portions of fruit and vegetables a day as well as taking omega 3 and vitamin D supplements. Leading up to my operation i have heard all sorts of first hand horror stories from friends but (✋touch wood) my experience hasn’t been too dreadful!
