try to stay slightly propped up in bed when you sleep!. Im not saying like a 90 degree angle!.!. perhaps a 35 or 40 degree angle!. That worked out well for me!. Make sure you don't drink through a straw!. lol!.!.!. i almost ripped out my stitches doing that!.

yikes!!! flashback to how my english teacher looked after she had her wisdom extracted!. -___- i don't have anything to make the swelling go away faster, but i do hope it isn't infected, because my teacher had to go back to relieve pus that was collecting inside her gums!.!.!. just leave it alone and try not to get it infected!!!

try not to eat for a day or two,only take warm liquids,such as soup and only drink warm liquids!.a gargle with a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water should be of help!.do not swallow the gargle mixture!.dont rinse mouth for 1/2 hour!.all the best!.cheers!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your doing the right thing!. Not much else can help!. Ice is the best for swelling!. The Motrin is for pain!. Years ago people used pressure, like an elastic bandage, but that does not really work that well and can cause complications!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
