Been discharged from Hospital....feeling pretty bad. Need some advice.
Hi There
Im a 32 year old fit and healthy male.
Last sunday I awoke in great pain, and with a swollen left side face. I was admitted to hospital where I was told I had an impacted wisdom tooth. The following day they operated, under general anaesthetic, and removed the offending tooth.
I was the placed on the ward to recover. There were no problems so I was discharged yesterday morning. I am on two types of
Antibiotics for the infection, and codeine & paracetamol for the pain. In addition im taking Spriulina as a general supplement
In the past two days however, the swelling on my face hasn't improved, it has become worse if anything, and my pain has increased, not just in my Jaw, but im getting headaches. I also have zero energy and keep drifting in an out of sleep. Im generally feeling pretty poorly and feeling sorry for myself!
Now i am loathed to go back to the hospital. So I was wondering what advice people could give me so i can reduce the pain, increase my energy and help fight the infection to reduce the swelling.
I have been visiting curezone for a while so I have some base knowledge
Thanks for all your help
Larry
