Day 3. Gums & dentures recovery update.

Had to leave voice-mail for my dentist. Woke up in searing pain, on both upper/lower on right side of mouth. The swelling in that area went up hella fast overnight - spreading past jawline & into my neck for lower area; its closing up right nostril for upper swelling. I'm having problems breathing properly & back to just liquid food this morning because lower swelling has affected my swallowing.

I'm feeling grumpy due to the pain & new difficulties related to fast swelling areas, described above. First mouth sore has developed on upper left side of mouth. I have a special medicated rinse for that👍

I'm happy about my pureed food & liquids this morning. Made by a friend nearby. #IndianFood. Tomato soup & salt lassi. First time having salt lassi - it's a yogurt based drink, with cumin, black salt & mint.

Good morning 🌅

Day 2 update - Post #dental extractions, with new immediate #dentures.

My breakfast today is #BabyGourmet pouch of hearty veggie & turkey #puree. #ParentsChoice pouch of banana, sweet potato, blueberry & brown rice puree. 3 small bottles of #Activia banana strawberry #yogurt drinks.

My jawline & gums pain woke me up several times last night. I was getting up to replace icepacks throughout the night - no extra swelling this morning 👍. I took one painkiller at 6am & will need another after getting some food into belly. The upper set aren't bothering me much, they just feel strange because I'm not used to having dentures in at all. The lower set is very uncomfy, feels like they're going to fall out & will need most of the adjustment work today.

I'm moving my denturist appointment to afternoon because sleep was rough. I'm sleeping bit more after eating - woke up, very hungry.
