State of the Face
My recovery is going alright, I think. Aside from having really low energy levels all around, I think I'm on the mend.
The left side of my face (where two teeth were extracted) feels more-or-less alright. Sore, but serviceable.
The right side (where just the lower was removed) hurts quite a lot more, and looks different than the other side does when I examine them both in the mirror with a flashlight. Neither side looks particularly inflamed or swollen, there isn't any bleeding anymore, and I can feel the stitches dissolving as they should. It just looks... different.
I just hope I get my jaw-strength back in time for Passover. It's a crunchy holiday, as such things go.
