Out of all the days to recover, I feel like day 2 of recovery was the
worst for me. Drooling was nonstop, pain in my jaw was at a 7, I
couldn't breathe out of my nose at all, and it took a good amount of
time to try to open my eyes.
Pain was at the highest it had ever been for me: 7.
The
biggest problem for me related to my sinuses. The surgeon removed a
large amount of pus from my sinuses because of the amount of infection
that I had up there. However, even though they cleared a lot of mucus
and gunk, I still had swelling and I was completely plugged. Because of
how plugged up I was, I couldn't even drink anything; it felt like I
was drowning.
The doctor was notified of this, placed
an order of nasal trumpets to be placed up my nose the next day. The
goal for today was to get as much congestion out of my nose as possible.
I tried to drink as much water as I could, but it was really difficult
to even get a trickle.
