This was almost 2 hours ago and it still hurts like hell!! But I don't know if I can brush, what to swish with, etc!.!.!.what not to eat!.!.!.I'm totally freaked out, I'm going to take the pain medication they gave me but I really feel it just needs to be cleaned out!. I've been rinsing with water but it's only hurting worse and worse!.
