Wisdom teeth question...?!
Question: Wisdom teeth question...?
So, I had my wisdom teeth taken out today: 2 of them cut out, and 1 just pulled.
Right now, the numbness has worn off and I don't feel any pain at all. I had a Vicodin about 7 hours ago just to be safe, but didn't feel a lot of stuff from that.
Is this normal to not be in as much pain? I've read a bunch of things about people swelling up and everything, but there's none of that. And if it's NOT normal, is there anything I should do to prevent pain from happening in the future?
Thanks a lot!

The pain and swelling normally occurs not immediately after extractions but the next day and 2-3 days at a peak. Take regular paracetamol and ibuprofen together every 4 hours to fight the pain.
Well if your not in pain good for you that stuff can really hurt you, anyway if the pain kicks in try ibprophen (sp)
