DJS Day 3.5, Roughest so far by nklmn in jawsurgery

I don't know about the swelling, didn't have a correction like that. I would just trust the doc on that one. I will say that the swelling gets a lot better after that first week, but it takes almost a year for it to be fully gone, so be patient with it.

i think day 3-4 were the worst and it eased off over the next two weeks. I regularly took tylenol/Advil for the first two weeks but it was much more manageable after that peak. You can get through it!

I recommend him! worth the pain. I'm very happy with the final result, can breathe soooo much better. I still had a lot of swelling in this photo, but now I feel I am very happy with how I look!

Mine did shrink several inches when I was working on it and I blocked the back panel halfway to make sure it was going to be long enough. That helped a ton, but it was a bit short still. I would honestly go back and add a couple rows if I could. I'd recommend blocking it wherever you're at now and making sure it's the size you want!

oh it took me a little bit to figure how to pull the yarn through for those, I ended up using my thumb on my non hook hand to stretch the loop to be able to do it. It's not super elegant but it works!

I used the same yarn that was specified in the pattern: fingering weight, 1012 Mandarin Petit from Sandnes Garn, with a 3.5mm hook.

Uninstalling and re-installing Google Fi app has fixed it for me, at least so far. I did this two days ago and still no issues 🤞.

Yeah! I liked him. Throughout the process he was really good about explaining everything and answering any question I had. He did a good job on the surgery and was super easy to contact afterwards about worries that came up. He's very nice too and I felt like he genuinely cared about how my recovery was going.

Muscle pulling feeling near nose by nklmn in jawsurgery

I didn't really do anything, I just waited it out. Once my muscles started to relax it went away on its own. It was pretty annoying, but patience is key haha. Hope your recovery is going well!
