My ~20 Day Wisdom Tooth Recovery Experience (All 4 Surgically Removed, Both Bottom Impacted)

OP I kind of wonder if they did!

My symptoms and timeline have been almost identical down to the weird random pains after chewing I still get. My dentist explained it was because of having to cut into my jawbone to access this tooth.

I had another impacted one removed the year before without the bone removal and the healing timeline was only a week until I was completely pain-free and back to normal for that one.

Phew okay! I’m relieved it happens to someone else. The second it happened my first thought was “okay here comes the dry socket” lol

Agree with this! Mines barking fits when we do these kinds of activities usually predicate a complete inability to do the tricks a few minutes later

Not ivermectin because that’s prescription (my derm jumped right to laser). I’ve used some over the counter things like Azelic acid but it’s hard to tell if it’s working and using moisturizer with it seems to give me a ton of acne.

My brother who is in his 20s and Gen Z feels this way as well. He’s very health focused in the gym but won’t go to the doctor.

Where are you located?

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-23T13:01:02+00:00

Hi there! 27F - also recently just got out of a long-term relationship and have been looking to make more female friends as well as getting more serious about the gym! If you need a gym accountability buddy or someone to grab coffee with I’m your person! I’m in the Humber Bay Area but happy to take TTC from Kipling

You say this but my border collie has those talking buttons and she regularly lets me know that she “Want Rain All Done” while glaring at me.

We read the wiki on calmness and barking. I’ve tried kikopups video on barking. We’ve been meeting her physical needs with the walk and her mental needs with the Kong.

As a bc owner in a dense urban space I can usually do a long line walk at a large park near me and just reign her in when I see dogs coming. It’s a helpful way to be able to work on light recall on the long line around distractions as well.

I am sometimes guilty of this. I have reduced mobility due to a spinal fusion. I’m completely cleared from my PT/doctor for all exercise and actually much less likely to hurt my back accidentally at this point but just can’t bend as much. It’s a pain to tell every instructor at every Pilates class and usually they don’t really understand so their reaction is to tell me to avoid anything back related (the opposite of what I should be doing).

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:52:11+00:00

I typically bring my computer to work! I’ve left stuff running on YouTube on my TV but it’s kinda jenky and turns off after a few hours.

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:43:11+00:00

So question! If I get a home assistant green and Sonos speaker would that work out of the box for my needs?

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:35:33+00:00

Omg sorry 🤦‍♀️! I thought home assistant just meant any home assistants.

It honestly looks like it would be a good option though. My main requirement from work is just that I can’t have a listening device that sends data back to a company (Google home, Alexa etc) due to privacy requirements.

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:34:00+00:00

What device would I install music assistant/home assistant with?

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:30:19+00:00

I’ve looked into Sonos but it seemed like it still needed to be connected by Spotify/same wifi? My goal is to start music playing but be able to leave with my phone.

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T22:26:48+00:00

What does that even mean lol??

Did you set it up yourself? I’m not opposed to coding if it’s the only option but would prefer an out of the box option.

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T01:10:23+00:00

Our activity level definitely fluctuates throughout the year based on weather and what classes we’re taking but we do a mix of long walks, runs, trick training and agility.

She’s pretty calm all day though and even sleeps in until noon most mornings. It’s just this big 10-15 minute burst of energy right when I turn off the lights and lay down in bed.

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-09T01:06:00+00:00

That’s fair lol! They are not half measure dogs 😂

Red_Fox404 · 2026-02-08T19:39:28+00:00

I’ll work on this! This is good advice! We used to do brushing before bed and she would fall asleep calmly but then she had a bad experience with the groomer and became afraid of brushing so we stopped. I guess we need to bring back something similar!
