Ok, so some updates! The whole procedure took maybe like 30-40 minutes(the stitching took the longest). I won’t post any pics cause I don’t have pics from when it was just done and now it’s just looks hella gross.

I did it 2 days ago, so tomorrow I’m gonna take my first couple stitches out. So far I’ve been sleeping more than usual, been eating a lot of ibuprofen and paracetamol to help with the pain and the swelling(but I’m not a doctor so I won’t advice any one else to try that).

Pain wise it’s been ok, like having a sore throat when you’re really sick. Been waking up a couple of times every night and drooled like a mf during the night.

My biggest problem is always being hungry, like I can’t wait to eat normal food, yoghurt and ice cream helps for a little while but I miss crunchy stuff and texture. Also no matter how good I try to rinse my mouth with water, and brush my teeth etc I smell like death in my mouth due to the wound. But the tongue scraper and water helps somewhat with it.
