Re: Experiences with Swelling

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I am nearly 4 weeks post op from top and bottom jaw, and I still got a

bit of swelling around the cheeks and jaw. The doctor told me it can

take upto 6 months for all the swelling to go.

Apply heat, Read posting on how to apply. It works wonders to

reduce swelling.

Good luck

Hi , I'm 3.5 weeks still with upper face swelling. I had upper

jaw surgery 3 years ago and I do remember it took a llooonngg time to

go down. I didn't even realize I was still swollen until I saw

pictures of myself a few months past my surgery and my face made me

look way younger than I am - maybe I should try and keep the

swelling :-).

, you are not the only one that freaks out, I do every morning

as I seem to be a lot more swollen in the morning and have more

difficulty talking because I am also more numb.

's heat technique is really working for me, that's why in the

mornings I notice morethe swelling.

Take care

Hi ,

I'm almost 5 weeks post up from upper and lower surgery...

I still have noticeable swelling, especially on my lower jaw(well I

hope it's swelling ... I think it varies from person to person on how

long it takes to go down...
