Recovering from Dental Surgery

Dear folks!

This will be a short update...as I am in the midst of recovering from my first part of Dental Surgery to remove my wisdom tooth...

I went to govt. clinic in the hope to remove my two wisdom tooth which had decayed....been delaying the visit due to pregnancy and breastfeeding(as they would prescribe antibiotics before and after from my past experience 2 years back when i remove the one on my bottom left side).

To my dismay they would only pluck the top one and leave the bottom one till the end of next month after X-ray is done......i thought i can have it gone all at one go...haih....

But after bleeding non-stop(with lotsa blood coming out) whole day yesterday and still bit more today...I told myself..luckily they removed only one..if two at the same time..I wonder how much blood i would lost during this period of time....(plus having my "auntie visit" at the same time..)

But i do found out something...perhaps breastfeeding and av has made the blood coming out more than other people..hmm..

Anyway I have made enough preparation(reading the net on how to care after surgery) to prepare a faster recovery this time..been diligently taking Vit. C before and post-surgery....seems to work! THanks to my PHARMACIST friend...HuiChin!

And keep my finger crossed I should be painless and well today(the second day) and hopefully the next visit to remove the bottom one would be fast, bearable and recover promptly too!

Wish me luck! :)
