Wisdom teeth
I asked a question about what it's like to get your wisdom teeth out before. I just got them out a few hours ago and my mouth is in a great deal of pain. It didnt hurt getting them out because I was asleep. I got all four out & they were impacted. I've only had mashed potatoes and a little water since I came home & I ate the potatoes extremely slowly. I tried taking the prescription medicines, but I can never swallow pills so yeaaah. I took penicillin & I somehow got that to go down with my potatoes. I have one other pill to take & it's round and I cut it in half & have tried 5+ times to swallow it but it doesn't work, even when it's in my potatoes.
I took tylenal for the pain already [adult liquid tylenal] & i'm 17/f.
Any suggestions of what else I can take where I won't have to deal with swallowing pills? And I dont thik sending me sites or ideas of how to swallow them will help, seeing as I'm pretty sure i've tried everything.
Thankss.

swallowing pills bites.
It might help if you crush up your pills as little as possible and put them in your mashed potatoes, and don't think about the pills, watch tv or something while eating.

Continue to take the liquid tylenol as the directions say. But besides that there's not too much you can do. I recommend lots of sleeping. My sister was having pain from her wisdom teeth and she just sleep forever and it helped her to get over the pain. I know exactly how you feel about not swallowing pills, I've never taken one in my life. I hope you feel better soon, pain sucks.

Lots and Lots of ice. I kept Ice on mine for 2 days, but didn't have any swelling or bruising. Other then that there isn't really anything you can take that isn't in a pill form. You could try taking childrens liquid pain medication, but you should consult your doctor as to how much you would need to take.
