Thank you all!
My pain comes mostly during the night (like right now, it's 3h21 am) and it's only on one side where I know she had to cut in the cheek and dig much more in the bone. Ugh. I take painkillers before going to bed but since they don't last more than 6 hours, here I am! I had three pulled out (4th one had the decency to come out conpletely and was removed like a regular teeth last year) and it's the side with the single one that is hurting. The other two are well behaved...for now.
What drives me nuts is that it doesn't hurt that much during the day but wakes me up at night. I sleep with my head higher but it doesn't seem to do anything to help.
If you have any trick to make it through the night please share!
Pain at night sucks so much! I think having nothing else to think about makes it worse. Usually I try to find something to distract myself from the pain, like music in headphones while lying/sitting in bed and gradually decreasing the volume. Doesn't always work but sometimes it helps! Hope you feel better soon !
