DRY SOCKET INFECTION!.... W....T....F?!
For those of you that don't know what that is, it's when they remove a tooth and the blood clot comes out exposing BARE BONE. Well, your bones don't really like that... So, it gets really painful and really swollen. That's why I've been having the pain in my lower right hole thingy. So I went in to have them handle it and what do they do? THEY SHOVE A SQUIRTY THING INTO THE SOCKET to flush it out and then take another squirty thing full of anti-biotics and shove that in too. But that's not all, no, they take this little strip of what looks like cloth and shove that in the hole. It's got some medicine that not only numbs on contact with moisture but tastes HEAVILY of cloves. Just cloves... can you say... EW? They kinds missed at first with the strip and so half my tongue and lip went numb so I got to walk out drooling like a little kid into a tissue. This was yesterday. I had to get the strip replaced today and I have to go back one more time tomorrow. Yay summer.... TT___TT

The only way this could get worse is if you got permanent numbness. =/ Thankfully, it can always seem to be worse. Keep on healin'!
