But does it really hurt like thy say it does when you get it removed?
I got mine removed nearly exactly 2 years ago. I think it was the week before Christmas.
They had been killing me. All four were removed at once.
First day? Not too bad besides the bleeding. Plus I was hungover from the gas.
The second? Horrible.
My head felt as big as the room and if I went from laying down flat to standing, I could feel the blood rush and my head would feel like it was about to explode.
I saved my pain medication for bedtime. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to sleep the first three days.
The headache decreased daily and peaked at day 2 but the first five days or so were brutal.
The taste was worse than the pain. I tasted blood for weeks.
I had to constantly use peppermint for maybe two weeks.
Food will get stuck in the holes for a month or two afterwards. You should be given a syringe.
Do as they say and use water with salt when you're supposed to.
Use the syringe when food is stuck in the holes also (don't use a toothpick) but don't shoot the water into the gap too fast or close because the area is going to be ridiculously sensitive.
Follow protocols and take your medication as advised and you'll be fine. I'm glad I got them done.
