i was also 17 and like 118lbs so i dunno if that was the reason

I got my wisdom teeth out on the 10th, only had to have my two bottom ones taken out and they had already come through. Had no swelling after the numbness wore off the first day and generally I haven't had any pain whatsoever since then. The only thing I'm still afraid of are Dry Sockets. IDK if at this point I still have a chance of that happening easily, but I'm still not trying to eat anything that takes chewing. I probably won't even eat anything like that till like next Friday just to be safe.

edit - forgot to mention that I have still been in hell for this whole thing though, someone got my brother sick at his work and that made its way to me. So I've been fighting off a nasty cold this whole time :/ If I didn't get sick from that I would have been feeling perfectly normal this whole week after the surgery.

With wisdom teeth it really varies from person to person. When I had one of mine pulled I felt absolutely nothing while my girlfriend was in (atrocious) pain for at least a week

Don't smoke or use a straw.

I didn't get a dry socket, but I hear it's a bitch.

Take whatever pills they gave you (hopefully something enjoyable at least) and grab a yogurt. Time to chill.

Ugh I vape alot. This is gonna suck if I have to hold off on that for at least a week. The notion of not doing or eating things is more painful than the actual teeth being removed!

Also to be honest I'm pretty sure I only waited 24 hours tops for that. Oxy + vape + lots of ibuprofen = 👌.

So 48 hours in I'm not in any pain. I took the antibiotics and a few ibuprofen. Been eating somewhat normally. I held off on coffee until maybe tomorrow. I'm feeling pretty ok!
