Guest guest Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Hi wragen22, I am only day 4 post-op now...but am curious about your dull pain. Did you ask your doctor about that pain? It is good to know why you have that pain now... Hope you are feeling well soon on your jaw muscle. Irene > I'm now 7 weeks post op leforte 1 and lower jaw advancement. I've > been doing really well.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Well, I thought I was the only one who still had my splint in so far post op. I had my surgery July 22nd, so I am 8 weeks postop. As I have increased what I eat in my diet I have had the same dull ache on the right side, which was the side that presurgery bothered me the most. I'm sure it's probably just your muscles " working out " after having so much time off. At your next OS visit you can mention it to him, but if it starts intensifying to much I would definitely give him a call to give him a heads up. Hope all goes well. Happy healing.
