Re: Just venting

Could be. I don't know much about the whys and wherefores, just that mine hurt like the dickens!! <G> I was absolutely terrified I was going to develop another one when I had a wisdom tooth pulled a couple of months ago, as I'd gotten them with both of my previous extractions, but it didn't happen. Thank God. By comparison, I would call that extraction totally painless! (It wasn't, of course, but it wasn't anything like those dry sockets, that's for sure.)

My dry socket wasn't that painful, just throbbing and not getting better. Believe me, if it had been excruciating pain I would have been in the office without hesitation. I wouldn't have gone when I did but DH insisted. I had heard that dry socket was extremely painful, and it just wasn't that bad. I guess there can be "degrees" of how exposed the socket is.
