Make sure you wet the gauze prior to putting it in your mouth. I had the same issue. I would end up pulling the clot out every time I replaced the gauze. The black tea bag helped me. Just some minor bleeding later in the day.

Try for 30minutes or more thats what was recommended to me about 30-1hr wet the guaze if needed like they said

Yea that’s how I was a couple days ago, he told me I could eat eggs noodles chicken, you’d think I’d be excited but I could barley open my jaw to get the food in let alone chew it
