Hi Sunny, As far as I know a "dry socket" is when the blood clot in the socket is dislodged. I found some information on the web at http://www.medicinenet.com/dry_socket/article.htm
I hope this is helpful. Good luck. PT ----- Original Message ----- From: Sunny To: Silver List Sent: Sunday, September 26, 2010 7:07 AM Subject: CS>Help with tooth extraction pain Hi all, I know no one can give medical advice, I fully take responsibility for choosing to follow any 'ideas' anyone may share... as my choice! I've just had a tooth extracted, upper molar, which required injections of numbing stuff into the upper palate, lots of drilling to cut up the tooth and subsequent hacking out in 3 sections..and stitches. It is still painful after a week and sore..and some nylon loop has now appeared dangling from the area... husband tried to cut it so it would not catch... but it is hard to do with scissors. The dentist didn't say anything about soluble stitches or to come back and have them out....I don't want to revisit him to get 'medication' that he suggested he would give me if it still hurt after a week.. but I may call re the nylon-style unbreakable stitch thread... My lower jaw was swollen as well...and has now gone down but is bruised..must have been dentist manhandling my mouth during the extraction. My gum at the edge of tooth next to the extraction and along the edge of the extraction also feels ulcerated...like a mouth ulcer. I'm scared I'm getting dry socket. Here's what I've been doing.. to not much avail and wondered if anyone has any other answers. I also have an electrical facial massager and the raw material to build a zapper. I spray a mix of CS and oil of oregano on it frequently to disinfect, help kill pathogens? And I'm drinking small cuplets of CS here and there, like one yesterday, one the day before.. I mix 8 drops of MMS and gargle in the spot.. boy it stings.. but thinking it will also help kill any infection. I've done this 3 times only, a couple of days ago and this morning. Wondering if I need to give these remedies especially for helping the ulceration pain more time ... it's really hard to eat.. and I'm scared of food touching the spot and causing more infection...more time and if anyone has any other ideas... and if putting a zapper on the site might help. Sometimes I wish I'd had all my teeth out to avoid future problems. With virtually no income, I've used credit to do this... makes me feel resentful of traditional medicine... the dentist was young, jumpy, jokey and later I realized didn't tell me about the procedure much. I originally went in cos a crown was wobbling off and he said he'd put on a stainless steel one, but when he removed the existing crown the tooth stump was too decayed to proceed. Big lesson for me to ask ask and ask.. any help will be appreciated and accepted as my choice to follow or not.. I make my own colloidal using a silvergen...it comes out at 9ppm.. mostly painfully.. sunny x A peek into our world..
