Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Had my lower left wisdom tooth pulled today. Not digging it.

I have hyrdocodone, but it makes me feel weird. My throat is a little closed up, but I can't tell if its due to allergies (mine have been bad recently) or a reaction to the codone (which it is a possible side effect). Almost time to take another codone, and I'm not sure if I want to... but I can feel the throbbing pain already...

It's going to be a shitty (next couple of) day(s).

aren't you old for this kcinsu>?

I didn't realize it was an age related issue?

well i think it's safe to say most people get them out in highschool. i waited a few years after school...

Well, this one didn't start coming in (sideways!) until this last year. *shrug*

Feel better man. Smoke some weed?

I don't have wisdom teeth.

sucks. hang in there

Cant smoke! Any type of suction (straws etc) could cause dry socket (terrible, terrible pain).

now you can quit

take some Benadryl with it....helps allergies, reactions to Hydrocodone, and will help you sleep

I had all of my wisdom teeth removed couple of years ago.. didn't have any problems

im 30 and haven't had them removed yet, hurt like hell a couple of months ago but only for a day or two. i probably will if they start acting up again though.

my dad didn't have his out until he was 52.

I had all four wisdom teeth out at once. One of the stitches fell out after a few hours after messing with it, but I still healed in about 2 days. And then I had plenty of vicodin to abuse. :sup:

I don't understand these people who walk around looking like a chipmunk for two weeks. Maybe I just had a good surgeon and they had shitty ones?

I thought you needed to keep yer wisdom teeth, fer eating and shit.

EDIT: Ok, I clearly had no idea what a wisdom tooth was. That shit is nasty.

yeah i wouldn't want to be awake for mine. one or two of the teeth came out in pieces, i can just imagine the doc going to town with a monkey wrench on me.

xxx: i had a "shark" tooth too. that surgery really sucked, the doctor didn't give me enough pain killers, told me it would hurt just like a mosquito bite and then just fucking ripped it out just like that. kinda traumatizing.

I don't remember what I was taking for pain when I got mine out, but it had a lot of codeine in it, and for a few days I was just blissed out on the couch listening to music/drifting in and out of sleep. It was awesome! At some point food particles got under the stitches and made it pus, which was disgusting, but other than that the whole wisdom teeth episode was an alright experience. Get some good pain meds and it'll be fun.

i never understood the praise for pain killers. i had a surgery back in the day and it basically made me a zombie... like it wasn't fun. i sat watching tv, the simpsons, and remembering that it was funny and that i should be laughing but i just didn't care and couldn't. maybe i was more dosed up than average..

I don't think watching something where I had to focus on a plot or humor would be much fun, but listening to music and just relaxing was fantastic. It was nice just being incapable of giving a fuck for a while.

do u feel more naive now?

just took another hyrdocodone. zombie is a good word for the feeling. also if i turn my head, it feels like it keeps turning for half a second after i stop. i need to just sit motionless. uhg.

trying to do programming homework... staring at the paper blankly. i dont see why people do this for fun...

Not too bad, I've had all 4 extracted at once. Now that is something uncomfortable. Good luck in feeling better, bra

I had all mine out last year and was on some massive drugs. I passed out three times. Wasn't painful but it wasn't fun either.

i cant imagine 4 at once...
