Default Re: Wisdom teeth pulled

Hopefully yours weren't impacted like mine. They extracted all four at the same time. Luckily, this was right after I graduated from H.S. and I wasn't a cigar fiend. Needless to say I was out of commission for at least a week. It was as least that long before the swelling went down and the squirrels didn't immediately accost me as I walked outside. As far as your question goes, I would wait as long as, if not longer, than they recommend. Think about how you feel now.... Now imagine another surgical procedure. I hope it's enough motivation to abstain from the leaf. If you need some Vitamin N, get a box of patches, but I think it's best to do without for now.

Best of luck for a speedy recovery.
