we called my oral surgeoun and he got pills for me to take.

what else can i do to help it??!

and will the swelling go up at all any more

if so, how can i reduce the swelling

Answer 1

To reduce the swelling, place an ice pack on the side of your face that is affected. 20 minutes on 20 minutes off. Keep doing this for about an hour. Some swelling is normal after this type of oral surgery, so don't panic. It probably isn't an infection. Make sure you follow all of the instructions given to you and take all of the antibiotics as prescribed.  

Answer 2

I would help you, but I don't know anything about it.

Just wanted to say though, you want your "wisdoms" to come in straight, like mine. :)

I just got my last one in 2 days ago.

Answer 3
