Three days after having my lower premolar tooth extracted, my gums and mouth were still very painful.  My tummy was growling in hunger but I did not feel like eating anything that required me to use my teeth to chew.  Every movement I made with my mouth and teeth hurt the affected site.   I craved for something cold and easy to eat. So I bought 2 boxes of ice-cream potong!

And the cold ice-cream indeed brought much relief to my traumatized mouth when I sucked on it 😀

Today is the 5th day post-tooth extraction.  The pain is not as intense as the first 3 days but the nagging pain is still there.  I can chew better now but the affected site still feels sore.  I still need to cut up my food so that I do not have to overwork my mouth, jaw and cheeks.
