I'm still doing great in my recovery from wisdom teeth removal. Today my mom took me to get my nails done - I was going stir crazy being in the house but she didn't want me driving yet. We also went to Whole Foods to get some more of the dairy free ice cream I like. I bought some sushi but I couldn't open my mouth wide enough to eat it! I think my jaw is locking up a bit from the swelling. That is getting better though, so I'm sure it will improve with time. I'm home now. I had to take a pain pill as my mouth was quite achy. Overall I am feeling pretty good though. I will probably stay home tomorrow and relax more. This weekend I'm hoping to go to the movies with a friend.

Wisdom tooth removal can be painful.

This hasn't been too painful at all. Other than feeling a bit achy in my mouth, I think the only real pain has been right after surgery before I took my first dose of pain meds. Everyone is remarking on how well I'm doing.

@Lolaze At 32 I have got my second wisdom tooth. Just started half developed inside. Not going to remove it though. It pained initially.

@skysnap I am 31 and had no choice. My upper left one was pressing on a nerve and giving me horrid migraines. I had 7 hospital visits in the last month to get IV pain medication to stop the headaches. Feeling so much relief now that the teeth are out.

Soon the pain will cease completely. Feel better and take it easy. Enjoy the weekend.
