My little "pamphlet" specifically indicated that I should not allow my tongue to "investigate the sutures."
That is really hard to do. I am SO CURIOUS! and they left at least THREE big long trims that are sticking into my cheeks! Why didn't they trim those shorter?
Not good...Plus I don't feel like I am getting the area clean enough. I have been swishing salt water after everymeal... and trying to brush my teeth (as far as I can becuase I can only open my jaw so wide) But I am afraid it is going to get infected!!! (I suppose that is what the antibiotics are for.... but still!)
Yeah I had the same fear. And I had the same problem with the sutures - there was one in particular that drove me nuts and it took waaaaaayyyyy too much energy to not play with it.
ReplyDeleteI do like how that is worded. No "investigating" those sutures.
