Keep up with the ice cream! Iced drinks also help. Medical advice: it’s easier to keep pain down than to bring it down. Practically, it means take your pain meds on schedule. It helps control the pain much more efficiently than taking them once the pain starts

Yeah I figured out that one the hard way in the car home. We were 30 minutes from the pharmacy but I was already in pain once I fully woke up, since the numbness didn’t last very long. It wasn’t for too long so I’m fine, but now I’m wanting to stick to that schedule as strictly as possivld

Hey, do you know by chance when I’m supposed to stop taking the meds? I was completely passed out so idk. My grandmother just looked at them and said they’re too strong and that she’s gonna stop giving them to me tomorrow

I stopped taking meds after about a week you don’t need them for super long it’s just to help prevent infections but with the proper post op care you’ll be perfectly fine
