Guest guest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I am 8 weeks post op today. for the last two weeks i have been experiencing major discomfort in my lower lip, sometimes upper. I know it has to do with the feeling coming back, but OUCH. I thought it was from excessive talking, so i used wax, i thought it was from stretching my lips so much to replace bands, so i went overboard on lip goo for healing and soothing. i have come to notice that a lot of the discomfort is on the inside, way below the lip, so that that skin is not even touching the braces. I think it is just a sensitive area, as no other area on my face has had any discomfort when feeling was returning, tingling yes, discomfort no. has anyone else been experiencing this?
