Answers:
your cough should go in 2 days!.
You dont need to keep the gauze in!. If you had the gauze blood will clot on the gauze and then dislodge the clot when you actually remove it and cause a dry socket so dont put gauze in listen to what they said about the gauze!. gauze is kept only so they can manually apply pressure to squeeze together your socket for faster healing!.
now about your concerns dont worry about a dry socket, you will have to irrigate the area with the water syringe that they gave you, if they didnt then try to rinse only after you eat and do it very gently!.Dont keep spitting out, tht is not good!.
follow the list of instructions they gave you on the instruction sheet!.
have complete liquids and in that you you wont have to keep bothering about food getting stuck there!.
sleep well and take your pain meds!.
Dont get paranoid!.
Dry socket is when there is no blood at all and no clot at your surgery site, its a very painful condition but not seen this early!.
hang in there!. call the dental office with concerns!.
all the best i am sure y ou will do fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
