Guest guest Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 Ok, Thursday I had my surgery, I upper and lower jaw surgery....plus the 3 piece upper to widen my palate. So I'm now into my 3rd day post-op. I'm wondering how long the swelling and numbness in my face will last. The doctors told me I could even rinse my mouth with the mouthwash they gave me, but that's a little hard to do still. My husband has been great...with me every step of the way, doing all that he can to make sure I am comfortable. If anyone has any tips on how to deal with everything I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
