My wisdom tooth is forcing its way out and I'm feeling rather miserable now.
The pain started since Thursday but I thought it was only an ulcer then. By
Friday night the inside of my left cheek had swelled up and when I checked
the mirror, I could see more of my wisdom tooth than I did before. The very
same wisdom tooth had bothered me before a few years ago but it was only a
very dull ache that quickly ebbed away. Now it seems it's going to be giving
me a full-blown problem, boo hoo hoo. Now I can eat only on one side of my
mouth, and it hurts whenever I screw my mouth out when gargling or spitting.
All in one week before my competition! I daren't see the dentist now because
I don't want to have an op before the comp, so I'll have to wait until after
the comp. And even so, I won't have the op straightaway, I need to get his
opinion first (and I'll probably go to another dentist after that to get a
second opinion) and then set the date later. That means it might be a good
three weeks from now before it's fixed. I hope the pain doesn't get worse.
It's not really so bad now, but it's the difficulty in using my mouth that's
bothering me.
Sweet Helen has bought me Bonjela. Haven't tried it yet, but I hope it
works.
