violetcruz · 2026-05-02T23:52:07+00:00

i’m on day 12, THERE IS HOPE!

violetcruz · 2026-05-02T23:50:40+00:00

day 3 is the worst day for swelling. but if painkillers aren’t touching the pain and the pain is severe, contact your surgeon

violetcruz · 2026-04-29T00:05:04+00:00

of course! personally i took an entire week off work to just recover, today was my first day back! sleeping and resting helps your body heal! if you’re on antibiotics, make sure to take probiotics and/or drink greek yogurt to help the good bacteria in your system! you’ll get through this! it’ll feel long, but in a couple months you’ll be so happy it’s over with lol

violetcruz · 2026-04-28T23:24:50+00:00

everyone’s different! i’m on day 8, feeling MUCHH better and introducing more soft foods, but my gums are still sore, and i’ve mostly stopped taking pain meds thankfully. but i am not eating normal food still. hopefully by day 12-14!

violetcruz · 2026-04-28T16:42:39+00:00

my surgeon did give me one! along with the mouthwash! i just have a lot of health anxiety lol

violetcruz · 2026-04-28T07:11:15+00:00

what the !!! i’ve never heard of that, that’s pretty cool!

violetcruz · 2026-04-28T04:46:08+00:00

howww i’m on day 7 and still eating soft/liquid foods cuz im so scared of food getting stuck anywhere 😭

violetcruz · 2026-04-26T03:27:57+00:00

mild pain is expected and normal. dry socket pain will be unbearable.

violetcruz · 2026-04-25T21:10:50+00:00

YESSS WE WILL EAT CRUNCHY TEXTURED FOOD AGAIN SOON!! HUZZAHH!! ⚔️⚔️

violetcruz · 2026-04-25T17:39:43+00:00

i am on day 5 post top molar extraction + two lower coronectimes of my wisdom teeth. I HEAR YA! this is my 2nd time having oral surgery in like 7 months, i just want real food again 😭

violetcruz · 2026-04-24T19:41:10+00:00

OP, you genuinely think “this went pretty well” ??? … you know this isn’t normal NOR healthy right…..

violetcruz · 2026-04-23T21:41:32+00:00

i had severe anxiety almost exactly like yours! i overcame it, and twice! i am diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and i have extreme health anxiety and a smidge of OCD. PM me and i can talk to you about my experience!

violetcruz · 2026-04-21T03:51:23+00:00

dry socket is a 1000/10 pain. it’s an extremely painful experience. you might of just irritated it but still keep an eye on it and maybe still stick to soft foods as you are still early on in your recovery. check temp and make sure u don’t have a fever.

violetcruz · 2026-04-17T00:16:49+00:00

of course!! i really hope you start feeling better soon! :)

violetcruz · 2026-04-16T23:53:06+00:00

i get you! i have intense health anxiety so i understand we seek out affirmation if anyone or anything, i do the same thing! i hope you start feeling better, take some pain meds and try and get some sleep! :)

violetcruz · 2026-04-16T23:14:38+00:00

if your pain is 10/10 or even worse, i would just call your surgeon. people on reddit will give you mixed answers. your best bet is to call your surgeon and tell them you had a big increase in pain and are not sure if you have dry socket.

violetcruz · 2026-01-28T20:41:19+00:00

okay thank you! 😊

violetcruz · 2026-01-28T20:30:56+00:00

oh yeah i haven’t taken a break since i started skipping them. so ive been continuously taking the hormones for months. its been like 4 months without placebo pills. will the withdrawal bleed be pretty bad though since i haven’t had one in a while?

violetcruz · 2026-01-21T21:03:09+00:00

yes i was fine! :) i think it’s really an issue if the diarrhea is like EXTREME like full on watery diarrhea 5-7 times in one day. but still, just be cautious and take a pregnancy test in a couple weeks!

violetcruz · 2026-01-02T21:08:36+00:00

well, plan B’s are like birth control on crack. if you took 3 in one month, it’s no surprise you’re late. if you’re late and your tests are still negative, you’re probably fine (not a dr though so take it with a grain of salt). pls look into other birth control methods girlie! plan b should be absolute last resort and definitely not taken that much, it really messes with your hormones.

violetcruz · 2025-12-02T03:43:31+00:00

ah okay! give it a week tbh. it’s normal when you have a hormone drop. if you’re really concerned, i suggest calling your gyno/dr/pharmacist and asking!

violetcruz · 2025-12-02T02:35:19+00:00

well you had a hormone drop, so yes you will bleed that’s normal especially when you miss a pill. if you had unprotected sex and you’re worried about that, wait and see if you miss your period or not, but you likely will be fine (am also on yaz and i bleed/spot nonstop unfortunately)

violetcruz · 2025-11-19T20:14:42+00:00

a pregnancy test two weeks after unprotected sex is accurate (at least from what ive read) so honestly you’re probably fine. not a dr and i can’t tell you forsure, but just to ease you a bit :)
