Something Cold To Soothe Painful Gums After Tooth Extraction

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.
