It's been a little over 2 weeks now. My condition is a lot better. I think 70% of the swelling has gone down. If I hadn't started breathing, I would have felt that almost all of it had gone down. But because of the lumps in my breathing, it seems like it would take a long time for it all to go away. I
had the stitches taken out in my mouth a few days ago. Parking was on a weekday, so I didn't want to spend half the car to go to the hospital, so I asked the dentist I went to and they said they would take out the stitches, so I went there. It really hurt so, so, so, so, so much. It felt like my raw flesh was being torn apart. I cried as soon as I got out. I was so sad, sore, and scared...
that . Because of this, I was afraid to remove the cheekbone pins... because then I would have to take out the stitches in my mouth again...ㅜ I also had a tongue piercing and an earlobe extension, but it hurt about 50 times as much... But since I got the stitches out, I can make as many facial expressions as I want and don't mind eating. It's so nice to be able to eat without using it.
I thought I wouldn't be able to eat spicy food for a while because of the scar I got when I took out the stitches, but it's okay to eat spicy food. haha So, I'm going to eat malatang tomorrow. I'm not sure if I'm
recovering now, but my lower jaw is a bit sore. It hurts so bad. I hope the knots go away quickly. I've been doing a lot of high-frequency treatment, but it's really bothersome these days.
