So today's my birthday (wohoo) but I'm still in pain from this extraction, and I just want to know if it's normal...or do I have a dry socket?! I've been told that it's extremely painful, but I wouldn't call it "extreme" pain that I am in. I know it's only been three days...so maybe I'm freaking out prematurely. I also know that if you are on oral contraceptives you have a higher risk of developing them, and the cherry on top is that I smoke. I did smoke a little the first day...give me a freaking break I wasn't even expecting them to pull it. Then I'm thinking, what if my allergies are freaking out? Would that cause pain too? I guess I will just break down and call them to ask. Any opinions out there?
Much Love,
K
Ohh! Ohh!! Pick Me! Pick Me!!

- Hi! Welcome to my thoughts, you should probably be afraid...but hey it could make for some entertaining times. I'm 23 and I work in the Insurance field, I have so many special interests it's crazy. I'm known for the following quote: "I'm not asking for acceptance, I'm just asking for respect", that goes for me and my friends too. If you can't respect either of us, I have no place/time for you. :-) Pretty simple, eh?

Little Spoon sent me! Happy happy birthday! Have a great day!
I had my wisdom teeth out a few years ago, and I totally sympathize with your pain. I was on codeine, and the beautiful thing was that it was so powerful, I can barely remember those 3 (or 4??) days. Anyways, happy birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I'm so sorry you're in pain on your birthday! I heard smokers are prone to dry socket if they smoke after surgery... Is that the case?
It's true, smokers definitely run a greater risk because the negative force of when we inhale. But I'm happy to say, the pain is starting to wear thin again. Yay! And Thank you guys for the birthday wishes :-)
