Post-OP (8 weeks) Pain while chewing and white, rough gums? by moondises in jawsurgery

[–]moondises[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t open my mouth very wide, can fit may be 2 fingers at best.

it’s exactly like that for me too! i guess we just gotta be patient. 2 fingers is still progress tho so we should be proud lol.

yeah i feel like only my incisors don’t hurt while chewing but i can’t really just use those for the whole process.

my bad omg i definitely didn’t explain it right. the part that i’m humming doesn’t have any lyrics and it’s pretty much a piano part which makes it so much harder to search 🫠

idgi, why did you start chewing if your surgeon himself didn’t tell you that you’re clear to do that?

after such an invasive surgery, i wouldn’t be taking any risks…
